Can rabies be caused by dog bite if the dog is not injected by anti-rabies?
Rabies can only occur if your dog is not vaccinated against rabies and if the dog that bit your dog has rabies. If it does not have rabies then your dog will not have rabies. But if you're still in doubt, see your Veterinarian.

No, not all dog saliva contains the rabies virus. Rabies is a viral disease that is transmitted primarily through the bite of an infected animal. Only dogs that are infected with the rabies virus can transmit it through their saliva. Most dogs are vaccinated against rabies, so the majority do not carry the virus.

Can a dog scratch cause rabies?
Rabies can be transmitted through a wound, scratch or abrasion when it comes in contact with the saliva of a rabid animal, and through a scratch inflicted by an animal if fresh saliva is on the nail of the animal that inflicts the scratch. Further, rabies can be airborne in bat caves.
Do dogs have to exhibit signs of rabies before they can give rabies to someone?
No. Rabies is a tricky disease. Sometimes it can be transmitted right away, and sometimes it lays dormant. However, just like a cold, if a dog has it, the dog can transmit, sometimes sooner, and sometimes later. If your dog contracts rabies, it will most likely be able to transmit within the week. Fortunately, rabies is only transmitted if a fluid exchange takes place, such as an animal bite or the animal licking an open wound. Unfortunately, there is no cure, and the animal will most likely have to be put down for relief of suffering and the safety of all in the animal's life.
Can a dog who has bitten a person and not transmitted rabies infect another person they bite later?
This question is rather confusing. However, if a dog is biting people this much, the dog needs attention of some kind. If a dog bites someone, there is probably a law in your area (if you are from the US) that it needs to be reported and then quarantined for ten days. That's the law in NYS where I live. This is to be certain the dog doesn't have rabies. My dog bit someone and even though we had proof that she had rabies vaccinations, we had to quarantine her for ten days. If your dog does not have rabies and is not vaccinated it will not catch rabies by biting a person unless the person the dog bit was carrying rabies, which is very, very unlikely. An animal catches rabies from other infected animals, from either getting scratched or bitten by that animal, or from eating a dead animal that had rabies. That's why it is so important to get your dog vaccinated every year.
Can a dog get rabies from being in the sun?
