Hello there. I can understand your concern. There is no need as such. But, bear in mind that rabies is a dangerous viral infection which has close to 100 percent mortality rate. You don't want to take risks with that. So better get immunised since you will be handling dogs. Consult a general physician in person for further evaluation and management Best regards. Dr. Anil Kumar Jain. Bangalore.
