Concerned about Stray dogs touch
Recently was walking in a street with my son all of a sudden he told me that the dog touched his hands and when I turned back I found the stray dog standing really very close. It did not bite and i dont know if it licked or anything and we couldn't wash hands immediately also.used sanitizer after a while. Should I be concerned? Are stray dogs in Chennai vaccinated ?
