Rabies vaccine
A dog rubbed his paw in my naked legs, the dog was pet but untackable, so due to anxiety I started rabies vaccination...though there were no any mark of scratch or blood...I took 0,3 shots so far, suddenly I met with owner and dog again, they live in a same colony and the dog was healthy, can I stop vaccination process...or should I complete 5 shots...?
