  3. Puppy scratch. Or rabipur vaccine?

Puppy scratch

2016-10-19 20:57:30
Hello doc, this two month old stranger's pet scratched me with its paw while playing (not sure of it being vaccinated). There was no bleeding as such, just a little trace of it may be. It has been 2 days and the scratch even is almost invisible. No symptoms, no irritation. Do i need to worry if i didn't get a tetanus or rabipur vaccine?
