There is almost no chance of contracting rabies if the dog hasn't bitten you but based upon your description it seems the dog is suffering from some prolapse and needs veterinary care so I would recommend calling some local NGO to help him out

Sharing living space, including the bathroom with stray animals, can lead to the risk of many infections, including skin lesions. The dog may have some tumor / maggot wound / prolapse as per your history. Try to reach your city corporation or some NGO to move the dog out.
