If there's no wound, bleeding, or visible scratch, and you're unsure about any bite or contact with saliva, rabies risk is extremely low.
Next Steps
But if the puppy is a stray or its vaccination status is unknown, it's best to consult a doctor for a precautionary approach.
Health Tips
If in doubt, take the vaccine—rabies is fatal but preventable.
