My vaccinated dog bit me. Is rabies a concern? Should I see a doctor?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Dog | Miniature Bull Terrier | Female | unspayed

I have been injected by ERIG I think 2 years ago and my mini bull terrier bit me, it's just a small wound, not even visible to my camera but I saw the skin was torn. My dog also has a vaccine from september. Will I get the rabies and should I still go to the hospital?
