No need for vaccination. But yes it's too late for vaccination now. Don't worry you are safe for now. But remember to start Rabies vaccination as soon as possible and Don't wait for the dog to observe for 10-15 days.

If it is  8 months after the scratch and dog is still alive and healthy then you don't need treatment.  If the  Dog  was infected with rabies it would have died by now. So you don't need any rabies vaccination.
