Puppy bit me long ago
I got a very small scratch on my hand while playing with my pup when it was almost a month old.I saw it broke skin, and a little blood came out. It was 3-4 years ago . My dog is 4 years old now, well and healthy. I did not get any vaccine then.
I recently came across a news article in TOI that a man died from a bite 20 years old. I got a bit nervous.
What should i do? I am tensed thinking about this.
