Hello.
Now a days most rabies vaccines are produced from vero cells , so they very safe. the old vaccines produced from neural tissues are are obsolete and no longer given in India.
you have already taken 3 doses. you can complete the full PEP ie 1 more dose ( taken at 0,3 ,7 14), fifth dose at 28 days is no longer recommended now.
as the dog is alive at 17 days he is not suffering from Rabis .
for future.
if you ever you get another potential exposure in future ( god forbit ) you will need to take only 2 doses.
