Cut from nail of my dog.

2021-06-20 13:24:09
Today, I got a slight cut from my pet's nails, He gets proper vaccination every year, I washed that part properly with soap & water, applied an antiseptic ointment. Should I worry about this & get an tetanus injection? & I got a tetanus shot 5 months back by the way.
