I think it's the first time u r keeping pet, it's completely normal that puppies bite and they too do it frequently, they have milk teeth, which falls around 4 to 6 months of age and permanent teeth grows, until then they bite u regularly, slowly the habit dissappear age the puppy ages...
Thank you.

No, you are not at risk. Not all dogs have rabies infection. Puppies usually have material immunity, so the puppy whose mother is already vaccinated is safe. On top of it, you are also taking vaccination. Hence, you are also safe.
