At 2 months old, a Rajapalayam dog or any other breed can potentially carry rabies if they have been bitten by an infected animal, such as another dog or a wild animal like a bat or raccoon. However, whether a particular dog has rabies cannot be determined solely by its breed or age.

Rabies is a viral disease that affects the central nervous system and is usually transmitted through the saliva of infected animals via bites or scratches. Symptoms can take weeks to months to appear in infected animals, during which time they can transmit the virus.

If a 2-month-old Rajapalayam dog has bitten someone and there is concern about rabies, it is important to take the following steps:

  1. **Observe the Dog:** If possible, observe the dog for signs of illness or unusual behavior. Rabies symptoms in dogs can include aggression, excessive salivation, paralysis, and behavioral changes.

  2. **Consult a Veterinarian:** A veterinarian can examine the dog and assess the risk of rabies based on the circumstances of the bite and the dog's health.

  3. **Vaccination History:** If the dog has been vaccinated against rabies, the risk of transmission is significantly reduced. In many regions, rabies vaccination is mandatory for pet dogs.

  4. **Seek Medical Advice:** If you or someone else has been bitten by the dog, seek medical attention immediately. Post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) can prevent rabies in humans if administered promptly after exposure.

  5. **Report to Authorities:** In some areas, animal bites must be reported to local health authorities so they can investigate and take appropriate action to prevent the spread of rabies.

It's crucial to take any potential exposure to rabies seriously and seek appropriate medical and veterinary advice promptly.

What happens to your throat when you sleep with your mouth open?

Nothing much. It isn't like your throat is going to rot away or anything, but I guess that depends on how wide you open your mouth. If you open your mouth as wide as it can go for weeks on end, it is very unhealthy for you for dust and other particles (life forms even) can go in and that wide open mouth probably means that you have trouble time breathing and need medication. Also, it will suck if an insect fell in but I'm pretty sure all these possibilities won't happen to you if you only slightly open your mouth while sleeping.
