Yesterday at a temple I took one grain of curd rice from a bowl. Later I came to know that the bowl is the feeding bowl of dogs. Do I need vaccination?

No need to worry, vaccination should be taken only if it bites or lick the open wound. For this nothing is needed.

Sharing of saliva can lead to rabies. You can never be too sure if bowl has been properly washed. Better would be to get vaccinated as it is serious disease if it happens and you should be responsible for yourself and family members. Of course if you are sure that bowl has been properly cleaned and no saliva contact then you can ignore my advice.
