Rabid dog behaviour
Hello
I have 2 vaccine for rabies previous week now going to take my 3 dose tomorrow.
Yesterday I happen to be exposed to a street dogs saliva in my eyes tried ( JUST TEARS DROPS AFTER )
Dog was one among the group of dogs ... Not seperated from other dogs ..just barking while seeing humans didn't even try to bite anyone looked to be having a controlled behaviour like other dogs .
Will my vaccine save me if saliva is rabid and I'm also planning to take the vaccines from private hospital from 4 th and 5th dose will it affect the efficiency of antibodies supply and give me side effects ??
From the animals perspective does rabid dog socialise with other strays like friends .the dog that I encountered was with his friends (other dogs)
How does the dogs behave when it has rabies??

I think the first half of the question a human physician can explain you better than the veterinarian, the second of the question, I think the other doctors explained in a amazing manner so you can understand about it and got clarified about it.
Thank you.

Rabid dogs can be aggressive or very calm based on the type. Both type they have a lot of saliva secretion and can't be normal. Your vaccination will protect you and try to get the same type of injection (brand). Two brands are not advisable during the single schedule.

Rabid Dogs behave mad and restless and drooling..it's near impossible to approach Rabid Dog..As you are following post bite rabies protocol ,don't worry ..
How ever the Dog behaviour is,it's always necessary to get post bite anti Rabies injections if bitten by stray or pet where the vaccination history not known.. hope this helps
