Hi,
I was bitten by a dog about 45 days back and dog was quarantined for 10 days and came out healthy and alive but the rabies vaccine was not current.
I did not take anti rabies shot. Should I worry if the dog is doing fine after 10 days quarantine? The dog is still doing fine after 45 days.

Thank you for reaching out to pet coach.  Most likely you have nothing to worry about, however it is absolutely best to consult with an MD about the bite wound, the situation in which it occurred.  Telling you that you have absolutley nothing to worry about would not be correct, an MD can only give this advice to you and that is the safest thing for you to do in this situation.  Most likely there is no concern, but please consult with an MD to get the answers that you need to rest easy.  Thank you.
