Hi welcome to healthcareMagic

The complete dose of Rabipur injections must taken, total 5 Dose and a booster dose,
dose will be as follows, 0th day, 3rd, 7th day, 14th, 28th and 90th day booster dose.. you need to observe the Dog for 10 days to 14 days, whether it is infected with Rabies (Rabid dog) or not, if the dog is Rabid, then the dog will die within 10 to 12 days..... no matter how the dog is, But still you need to completely take the dose of injection... there is no food restrictions, but people follow by taboos... Do not worry, its not an dangerous disease , if you take treatment...
