Rabies shot
Today I finished rabies vaccinations and after a few hours a small dog licked my bag after 2 minutes. I moved the bag with the help of the hand on which there was a small wound. The dog did not touch me at all. Does I need another vaccination?

No, not required. Generally after full rabies vaccination, no need of any rabies vaccine for 3 months, if a person is bitten by rabid animals.
