Puppy bite

2017-05-12 13:35:33
Hello, my puppy's teeth scratched my skin and it bleed. It's a house pet and it doesnt go out that much. Its healthy, have its own vitamins and has anti rabies vaccine. I had my last shot of anti tetanus and anti rabies shot last 2013, and even when i was in college i did take anti rabies shot as well. Do i still need to take another shot? Booster or it's okay not to take any?

Watch the dog for ten days . If it remains normal,no need to get any booster shot for you.
