Since the dog has bitten you TWO years ago and is still alive, you need not worry about Rabies now. However, if you have not vaccinated the dog till now, please do so immediately. Finally, to avoid such a situation which leads to unnecessary depression, you can take the PRE- EXPOSURE PROPHYLAXIS of the Rabies vaccine (days 0,7 & 28 followed by a booster after 1 year and further boosters once every 5 years)
