Do I need to take rabies vaccine again ?

2023-04-06 14:23:18
Hi, after cat scratches. I had taken 3 doses of rabies vaccine in October 2022. Last month on 12 the march, 2023 I got little dog byte & doctor asked to take 3 doses but due to some reasons I took only 2 doses and missed 3rd dose. Do I need to take that 3 doses again or it's fine now ?
