Welcome to H.C.M. I am Dr Krishna Dubey.
Your doctor was correct and your neighbor might be needed for passive immunization because passive immunization depends on size of wound (That your treating doctor better observed during first visit) and category of Rabies.
Complete Rabipur course and follow that dog that dog is still live or not.
Thanx for query.
