If you had your dog vaccinated against rabies - and you should have - it does not have rabies.

If not, and you really suspect that, close it into a room and call animal control. That is a serious situation, and you must turn it over to them. There is no cure; once the dog has contracted it, it will have to be destroyed - that is the law.
