If the dog didn't bite or lick, there is no need for anti rabies vaccine.
It is transmitted only via direct contact.
If you are still anxious or unsure about the exact exposure, you can book a consultation with me on Practo so we can take a detailed history

If the marks are only from the road and no dog or other mammal actually bit, scratched or licked an open wound, rabies transmission is not expected. If a dog did cause even a minor scratch, it is a genuine exposure and should be assessed promptly rather than repeatedly checking it online.
Next Steps
Wash any abrasion with soap and running water for 15 minutes and use an antiseptic. If there was possible animal contact, visit an anti-rabies clinic today for wound and tetanus assessment; do not self-start or stop vaccine doses. For a clear review, book a Practo consult or visit Synergy Multispeciality Hospital, Miraj.
