Rabbies query
I have met many stray dog and cat in my life but I don't know whether any of them were rabid . I have touched them and one of them tried to bite me on my hand but bite didn't took place and i guess the saliva of the dog came in contact with my broken skin already present there . This incident took place 5 months ago.and many other things has happened like I use to touch dogs and cats and after that I didn't washed my hand and ate food like that and licked my hand after touching stray dog and cat. I never took any vaccine for protection . Last month I took 3 dose of Anti rabbies vaccine so will that work for protecting me from the incidents that happened in past or will I get rabbies??
