If you have done the complete course of anti rabies vaccination 2 months back then you don't need to repeat it again.

If you got a complete course of anti rabies vaccination two months back, then there is no need to worry. That previous vaccination will protect you.

You are safe because you have taken all 5 anti rabies shots a couple of months back. Stay relaxed.
But still consult with your physician and take a physician's opinion as well along with a companion animal expert advice , that's One-Health-Concept , entire world is syncing.
Next Steps
Keep an eye on your pet behaviour and activities. Ask the same question to the vet who is seeing your pup physically.
Health Tips
Although you are safe , in the worst case scenario when a puppy is having Rabies that should be alarming and you need to consult your physician. Hope this helps. Thanks
