A stray dog scratched me there was no blood only a small scratch I went to the Dr. the next day and on examination he said the scratch is not that deep and told me just for precaution I can take 3 doses. I took the two doses on time but due to a miscalculation the 3rd dose got pre pone by one day. Will this cause any problem doctor? I'm terrified. Also yesterday I was feeding a street dog he playfully jumped on me and I think he scratched me but it is very very tiny. Do I need a vaccine again? Am I protected? Please help I have taken complete 5 doses of vaccination two years before also.

You had taken three vaccine that is most important thing. Pre or post pond heardly matters. U r under vaccine coverage so no further vaccine needed.
