Rabies risk question
I was traveling in an auto rickshaw on a busy street when we passed by a dog that had a wound on its head that had exposed flesh and it was scratching it's head frequently as we passed by it. My mother was seated on that side. I asked her if she noticed any saliva or fluid drop in her eyes she said no but I am very worried that is it possible that any saliva or fluid from its wound could have like be thrown up due to the dog's scratching in her eyes and could one get rabies like this. The dog had a deep wound but was scratching normally I mean not behaving aggressively at the time.
