Rabies risk in vaccinated dog
I was bitten by my pet dog 1 month ago. I just got a single dose of rabies vaccine n tetanus as well... I recently read a news where a boy died after getting bitten by a pet dog was on vaccinated. Now I am scared about myself even though my pet dog is fully vaccinated. He doesn't have rabies and is fully healthy dog. Many times I have come in contact with his saliva but nothing happened till now. He has been at home since two years
Is vaccine really needed? I read US guidelines we are the state that if the dog lives beyond 10 days then no risk

Vaccinated dog can have rabies if they are not properly vaccinated.
Better to consult veterinarian and do its regular vaccination.
If a dog bites and any scratch occurs in ur skin and
their saliva touches the broken skin then you must have antirabies vaccine full course with tetvac.
