The only reliable way to tell is to test the dog, generally by killing it and examining the brain tissue.
Given that once rabies develops it is almost invariablyfatal (rabies kills tens of thousands of people each year, and the number of known survivors ever after symptoms appear is measured in the single digits even with medical care), if the dog is not immediately available a course of treatments known as post-exposure prophylaxis will be started as quickly as possible.
