Is it Rabies?

2025-12-11 17:16:03
1 week ago I was petting a puppy (maybe 2 to 3 months old) and his tooth sort of brushed my finger, there's no cut or bleeding. But I'm panicking not sure if I got a cut, since it has been a week I don't clearly remember if I did get a cut, I think I didn't but I'm scared

Rabies can only spread from fresh saliva to a bleeding wound. Since you have no wound then no needed to worry. And anybody can get anti rabies vaccinations. You can get them from your physician for extra safely
