Second dog scratch by teeth
My pet dog bit me 2 years back and died. So I decided to take vaccination. I took a vaccination of 5 rabipur injections. Today my another dog gave me a scratch by his teeth. What should I do? I immediately washed it with soap but I am scared if something happens. Please suggest something. Is there any risk to my life? Please help me. I need help

You just dont need to take full course of ARV, If you've already had the rabies vaccine,if the wound is more than 0.5 mm , you should take  2 doses after an animal bite — you'll get the first dose right away, followed by a second dose 3 days after the first. You won't need the Rabies Immune Globulin shot.
