there is a chance he could get rabies because not all vaccines are successful. Vaccines are medicine that contain a dead cell of the disease. Now it depends on the immune system. If the immune system cannot find a way to kill this cell the vaccine will fail.
SO GL ON YOUR DOG
Well, unless he was frothing at the mouth or diagnoed with rabies you have nothing to worry about.
You should, however, train him not to bite.
um duhhh if the dog doesnt have vaccines and it bites someone and it gets infected you will most likely be sued by the person who got bit.
You should take your dog to the vet and then ask the owner of the other dog if they had recently had rabies shots for their dog. Just in case get rabies shots if that dog has been bitten.
Please take your pet to the vet NOW! if bitten by another dog was did that dog have its rabies shots?
To vaccinate them from various disesases as well as protect people from getting rabies and such from being scratched or bitten from them.
go to the hospital because they could have raybease
Well, you can get your yorkie shots, so they dont have rabiesA bit more:It's not likely the yorkie had rabies, but you need to check with the dog's owner to make sure it has had all of it's shots. And you probably need a tetanus shot; when I got bitten by my own pug my doctor made me get one.
It can. Opossums can carry Rabies. If your dog was bitten by any wild animal, it should receive a Rabies booster shot.
by getting bitten by a rodent
In theory, a dog could get rabies at birth. If the mother had rabies or if it was bitten right after birth.
Because the rabies shot is a live virus, no. This could increase the rate of your dog getting sick from rabies. Get your dog tested, then if it has rabies, get it rabies injections.
No. You cannot have rabies. Even the dog did not die of rabies.
Rabbits do not carry rabies but can get them if bitten by a rabid animal such as a fox, coyote, dog. skunk or wolf.
If you are in a country with rabies, it would be far safer to get the injections after you are bitten by a dog, especially a dog whose vaccination status is unknown, a particularly aggressive dog, or a stray dog. The rabies incubation period is 1 - 3 months, therefore a dog can be infected with rabies (and infect you), without showing ANY external clinical signs of being infected with rabies. Chances are, during this incubation period, the virus will NOT have entered the saliva glands. It is only after the dog is affected with neurological signs that the virus tends to be excreted in the dogs saliva. However, this is not a risk worth taking. I would, of course, consult as quickly as possible with your local doctor if you have been bitten for the best advice.
