Mice potentially can carry rabies, but it is extremely rare and there has not been a documented case in the US. (Small rodents are believe not to spread the disease because they seldom survive being bitten by an animal that is carrying it, as they are a food source and get eaten.) Ground hogs seem to be the only rodent with the ability to carry it regularly and account for some 80% or more of the cases found in rodents.
Also, and contrary to some folklore, ticks do not carry rabies. Rabies is only carried by warmblooded animals.
It can. Opossums can carry Rabies. If your dog was bitten by any wild animal, it should receive a Rabies booster shot.
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 I personally was bitten by a java monkey and I did not have to get a rabies shot, but I did need a tetanus shot.. and that's a pretty big needle!
If the dog's vaccinations are current, then there is no recorded case of a human contracting the rabies virus from the dog. But, a booster shot is recommended.
Unless the guinea pig's teeth are rusted nails, I would hope not. You may need to go see about getting a rabies shot though.
Yes. For sure. You need to take full course of anti-rabies treatment. You may be given a shot of immunoglobulin.
A rabies shot is only necessary if the rat is wild, otherwise a rabies shot isn't required. If you're bitten by a rat you might want to get that wound treated right away, even if it is domestic, they still carry gems.
If it has rabies or its a wild mouse or something like that, go to the doctors a soon as possible. get a rabies test, and shot. the test wont come until three days so rather be safe then sorry right? But if its a pet mouse, and it draws blood, wash it out, then put a band aid on so it doesnt get infected. if it doesnt draw blood, don't worry about it.
No
atlantis existed BUT vampires are sooo fake and this will never happen If you're talking about the bat then he will need both a rabies shot (series of 6) and a tetnus shot. And quickly because once rabies is onset it is incurable and fatal.
Yes. If the animal is bitten by an infected animal. There is a great chance of it being infected.
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.
