Rabies is a dangerous disease and without precaution, your dog still contract it. Rabies is transmitted when an infected animal bites a healthy one. Most domestic pets have received rabies vaccinations, so rabies is often transmitted by wild animals. There are wild animals even in urban environments such as raccoons, bats, skunks or rats. These animals can bite your dog and give him rabies. Therefore, it is vital that your dog’s rabies vaccinations are current. Rabies vaccinations are required by law in many communities. If your dog bites someone, you will need to show documentation of an up-to-date rabies vaccination. Without this documentation your dog may be quarantined or even euthanized. And your dog could develop rabies if he is bitten by a rabid animal while unvaccinated. There is no cure for rabies. If your dog encounters a wild animal, make an appointment immediately with your vet care Sarasota, FL.
