No not. Definitely a very  bad habit,  must wash  your  hand before eating anything.

No risk as such , but if you eat without hand washing,  you are at risk of catching many  other germs.

There is very low/no risk for rabies in this case. But you should always follow hand hygiene before eating.
Next Steps
Just observe the dog
