Since you've already completed the full course of rabies post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) with 5 doses of the vaccine, you're generally protected from rabies. Even if dog saliva touches your previous wound, you don't need additional injections, as the vaccine should provide immunity.
However, considering you mentioned having a low immune system, it's advisable to consult a healthcare provider to ensure that your immune response is sufficient, especially if there's any doubt about the exposure.

Since you have taken all 5 doses you are covered for the next 1 years. So there is no need to retake the vaccine.
Just wash the wound thoroughly with soap water and apply T-Bact ointment over the wound.
