It is unlikely that your puppy has rabies, especially if it came from a breeder whose dogs are vaccinated. If the puppy's mother was vaccinated against rabies, then you will not get rabies.

It is not likely unless you know he was exposed to rabies. Puppies will bite and chew when they are teething which is probably the case here. Provide chew toys and teach him what is appropriate to chew on and what isn't. If it is a serious bite, see your own physician for an exam and treatment if necessary.
