I was bit today by a 4 month old puppy that had its rabies shot 27 days ago, on the first of this month. Its sharp tooth scratched my hand and I bleed a little. Should I go to the doctor to get vaccinated for rabies?
Furthermore, I had a PEP rabies vaccine (2 full courses) after I was bit by a dog in 2008 by the same dog in 2009, but I'm not sure if I'm still immune to rabies.
