After 18 months without vaccination, your dog will be susceptible to contracting rabies. Vaccinate every 12 months.
The vaccination series to protect against distemper is usually started before the rabies vaccination is given. However, rabies vaccination may also be given along with the vaccination for distemper depending on the puppy's age.
Effective anti-rabies slogans often emphasize prevention and awareness. Some strong options include: "Vaccinate to Eliminate: Stop Rabies in Its Tracks!" or "Don't Let Rabies Bite: Protect Your Pets, Protect Yourself!"

No, the anti-rabies vaccine and the anti-tetanus vaccine are not directly associated; they are separate vaccines targeting different diseases. The anti-rabies vaccine is administered following a potential rabies exposure, while the anti-tetanus vaccine is given to prevent tetanus infection. However, in some cases of animal bites, if the patient's tetanus vaccination status is not up to date, a tetanus booster may be given alongside the rabies vaccine as part of the treatment protocol. Always consult a healthcare professional for specific recommendations.
Rabies has not been found to be contagious from person to person. In theory, if a person infected with rabies were to bite someone else, the virus might spread, but no such cases have been recorded.
There is no single shot of rabies vaccination. Three shots of preventive vaccination are given on day 0, 7, 28. Alternately on day 0,28 and after six months. But I will advice to go for five does of anti-rabies vaccine, even if you are protected. The sixth shot may not be taken. But you will take it out of immense fear generated by people around you. Your physician will be forced to give you that shot. You can go for it.
The two most important vaccines for veterinary personnel are a current tetanus anti-toxin vaccine and pre-exposure rabies vaccination.

Rabies can only occur if your dog is not vaccinated against rabies and if the dog that bit your dog has rabies. If it does not have rabies then your dog will not have rabies. But if you're still in doubt, see your Veterinarian.
