Unvaccinated dog bite, no blood

2018-02-02 14:10:42
An unvaccinated street puppy( less than 6 months old) bit me while playing. it is a very minor scratch. i am not even sure if the skin is even punctured. and of course there was no blood. do i have to get rabies vaccination? if yes, how soon? p.s. it is not possible to properly monitor the dog as it is a street dog, although near my house so some behavioural change can be observed

If there was no blood then there is no need of vaccination. If possible keep an eye on the puppy. Average this little is dogs usually don't get rabies. But if you want to be precautious then take vaccination.
