Yesterday a dog grabbed my leg above the ankle through my jeans.the skin is mildly red & barely left marks. should i be concerned of having rabies?

Ask the owner: If you know the owner you could get shot records of the dog. However you should see a doctor to evaluate wound, and dog bite should be reported to animal control.
