Your veterinarian can test for this. If you are concerned make an appointment and have the puppy checked.
A vet cannot test for rabies until after the animal is deceased, then a test is performed on the brain of the animal for conformation of the virus. If rabies is suspected the animal is quarentined and watched over a period of timed for signs of progression of the disease. If the animal appears to be fine he/she is released from quarentine, if rabies is apparent, he/she is put down and then as I said before the test for conformation is performed on the brain. The only way your puppy could have rabies is if he was bitten by another animal with the disease, and most breeders and pet stores give the first round of puppy shots, which should have included his CRV (rabies) you would have just needed to get him his adult shot at 12 weeks. Rabies has 3 stages, though the dog may or may not show all 3. The first sign is a change in behavior, and he may have a fever. He will eventually get very angry, restless, and irritable, and then later have salvitary issues (hence the foaming of the mouth), trouble swollowing, labored breathing, and paralyzed face muscles and eventually go into respitory failure. I worked for a vet and we had a lot of concerned people about rabies, but I've never seen a case. Vaccinate your pet.
No, a 2-month-old puppy does not have rabies. Rabies typically takes weeks to months to develop in an infected animal, so a puppy that young would not have had enough time to contract the virus.
No If the bite had rabies you would know before 2 months.
Rabies is actually very rare. No one can have rabies after 4 years. I've never heard of a puppy ever giving someone rabies. To learn more about rabies go onto: www.google.com TYPE IN: History of rabies
A normal temperature for a 4-month-old puppy is typically between 100.5F and 102.5F.
He should have had his first round of shots and be on his last round plus be dewormed and now its time for his rabies.

Take it to a veterinarian. The chipmunk could have had rabies.

Only if the puppy is diagnosed with rabies. Might be an idea to get it checked out.
