My dog bit me by accident. she had vaccine 3 months ago. i completed series of antirabies last year. should i worry? should i get a shot again? help

Dog bite: If your go has had all of her rabies vaccination and you had rabies vaccinations then there is very little worry about rabies. Of course, any bite can become infected so wash it with soap and water and monitor for signs of infection such as redness, pus, or increased pain or warmth.
