Hello there...I can understand your concern. If there was no bleeding then vaccination might not have been required. Since it was a pet dog and only 1 vaccine injection was missed. But now since you have already started your vaccination, complete the first week course. However if it's already been more than a week since you started your vaccination and the dog is healthy and doing well, you can discontinue your vaccination. Consult a general physician for further evaluation.
