Doubt of having rabies.
Today is 5/11/17 two days back I accidentally stepped on a dog in the dark. The dog stinks and has some skin disease. It barked and scratched my feet. There was no tear or no blood. I washed my feet. There was no irritation also. Should I take a rabies vaccination and if yes am I late ? What should I do ?

Hi
If you get scratch, you should have the course of anti rabies vaccination. No compromise on it.
Take care
