Wound washed at Water Cooler...

Question

Asked for Male, 18 Years

I had cut myself while working at the college workshop. I quickly went to a nearby water cooler and washed my wound and had the first aid. But now I am afraid what if some dog had licked the coolers's tap? Is there any risk of Rabies? Please help...
