our 3.5 (almost) month-old dog had slightly bitten my right foot and accidentally, when i tried to take away my foot, there was a very small area of bleeding. it was just May 7 when it had anti-rabies vaccine and May 9 when the incident happened. i washed the bitten area immediately with soap and water. when shall i consult a doctor? what shall i do?
Hello, You should see your doctor and see what they recommend. You definitely need a tetanus shot if you have not had one in the last 5 years. If the puppy is not sick and has not been exposed to rabies then you probably do not need to rabies vaccine. It is best to see your doctor and get their recommendations. Tetanus shot needs to happen within 3 days of the bite. Regards
