Hi
With your query, whenever there is a dog bite one must immediately wash the wound with soap and water and get vaccination done immediately otherwise it results in rabies.coming to the vaccination it was in the olden days we have vaccines that must give around navel but now we have many new vaccines with their doses regulated doses uusually it will be five or three.These vaccines as such wil not cause any scar and donot disturb you from doing your work and this issue needs immediate attention from your doctor.Hope this is helpful.
