It is also possible to transmit rabies from a bite by a domesticated dog. The relationship between whether the dog will transmit rabies and whether it is domesticated is not too close, because it depends mainly on whether the dog carries the rabies virus, but it is possible for a domesticated dog to carry the rabies virus as well. Only domesticated dogs are regularly vaccinated against rabies, which allows domesticated dogs not to carry the rabies virus, so that dogs that bite people do not have to worry about rabies. So regular rabies vaccination is recommended for domesticated dogs to prevent the dog from transmitting the rabies virus to people. If the dog has not been vaccinated for rabies or has not been vaccinated regularly and has not been vaccinated for rabies for several years, it is possible for the dog to carry the rabies virus. If a dog in this situation bites a person, there is a possibility of rabies transmission to the person.
