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.
no ,it cant occor
They itch. Don't you scratch yourself when that happens. Also your dog may have fleas.
if you get bitten by a dog with rabies you might get them
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.
May Be
NO as rabies germs are present in its saliva only not the nails.As if there is a case that the dog has dirty nails due to which it gets bacterial and also the dog licks his own claw and nails due to which the saliva gets transmit into claw or nails they get virus .As rabies virus is in saliva of animals.Also there must be precaution from licking of animal which contain rabies on cut or wound surface of body as then the virus through saliva gets transmitted into body.
No. A dog can only get rabies from contact with a rabies-infected animal.
Because the rabies shot is a live virus, no. This could increase the rate of your dog getting sick from rabies. Get your dog tested, then if it has rabies, get it rabies injections.
No. However, if the dog has rabies, it probably isn't going to sit there and not bite you if you do so.
