<bot>: Hello, Welcome to Chat Doctor, Rabies is 100% fatal, but it is 100% preventable by proper and adequate treatment. As your daughter was scratched by your unvaccinated puppy which is a cat II bite according to WHO categorization of animal bite. Your daughter should receive active immunization with antirabies vaccine on days 0,3,7,14 and 28. She should receive a shot of TT injection. Your puppy should receive anti rabies vaccine at the age of 3 month and thereafter one more dose within 1 year. Secondary immunization should be given every year. Thank you.
