You don't, at least in America. Rabies vaccine must, by law, be administered by a registered vet.
If you get bite by a animal with it and do not treat it you could die
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.
You should have given anti-rabies vaccine to you pet. Now you need to consult your physician. He may give anti-rabies vaccine to all the people in contact with the pet.
Rabies shots should be given in deltoids or triceps muscle. Vaccine must never be given in hip region. You may give the vaccine in fatty tissue, making it useless. Alternately the vaccine may be given, as intra-dermal injections, as about 8 doses of 0.1 ml, on day zero, to achieve rapid increase in antibody titre.

A human diploid cell vaccine (HDCV) is an anti-virus vaccine ls cultured in laboratories. The most famous of these is theRabies HDCV introduced in 1978.. Possible replacement rabies vaccines include purified chick embryo cell vaccine (PCECV), chromatography-purified cultured vaccine (CPCV), and a primary hamster kidney cell vaccine (PHKCV) developed in China, all of which have been successfully field-trialed.Without a vaccination, a rabies-infected person is almost sure to die of the disease. There is no non-experimental course of treatment once the neurological symptoms have begun.technically it will kill
That is very serious thing. You need to have rabies immunoglobulin shot also along with course of anti rabies vaccine.
Well, The it is a rare possibility but for that you need to get the dog vaccinated every year with anti rabies. Its like a booster for every year, so if you are maintaining the booster there will be a marginal percentage for rabies in the Dog and your Dog will be protected. Also along with anti rabies there are other vaccines which you need for your dogs related to may other diseases.
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.
That is a very good question. You can take one dose of vaccine for minor bite on distal part of extremity. You observe the dog for 8 days. If the dog survives and well, the further doses of vaccine may not be given.
The two most important vaccines for veterinary personnel are a current tetanus anti-toxin vaccine and pre-exposure rabies vaccination.
