Scratch from pet puppy tooth

Hi, my Pet puppy(2.5 months old) scratched my daughter’s hand with teeth - there’s a scratch but no blood. I’ve washed with soap and applied dettol...should I do anything else?

Hi thanks for writing to Practo.  Scratch without blood oozing is category 2 exposure. Requires vaccination with anti rabies vaccine
