Bumili ng aso at nakagat pero wala pong sugat dapat na po ba akong magpaturok ng anti rabies or hindi na po kailangan?

Kahit wala pong nakitang sugat ay mas mabuting kumonsulta po kayo sa Animal Bite Center na pinakamalapit sa inyo dahil kayo ay kinagat pa rin ng aso. Maaaring may maliliit na sugat na hindi niyo lamang po nakita. Maaari rin pong pumasok ang laway ng aso kung sakaling may mga sugat kayo sa balat na hindi niyo lamang napapansin. Mas mabuting maging maingat at sigurado. Mas maganda rin pong mabakunahan ang inyong aso laban sa rabies.
