A rabies vaccination is required for a scratch by your own dog with a claw. Although it is his own dog, but can not confirm whether to carry rabies virus, some of the dogs injected with rabies vaccine, although the chances of carrying rabies virus is relatively low, but the vaccine is not 100%, can not completely rule out the possibility of carrying rabies virus. If the patient’s wound has broken the skin even if there is no bleeding, the virus will enter the body through the broken skin, causing viral infection, which in turn leads to rabies, and once rabies strikes, the disease and death rate is 100%. As a precaution, anyone who is scratched by a dog and has broken skin should receive rabies vaccination. After being scratched by a dog’s paw, the first priority is to immediately rinse the wound, usually using soapy water for 30 minutes, and disinfect the affected area with iodophor and alcohol, and then go to the hospital to treat the wound if necessary, and then have the rabies vaccination within 24 hours, and the earlier the rabies vaccination is given, the better in principle. It is necessary to avoid spicy and irritating foods such as alcohol, chili, raw onion, ginger and garlic in order to avoid stimulating the wound and promoting adverse reactions to the vaccine. To reduce the risk of being scratched and bitten by cats and dogs, do not deliberately tease cats and dogs and other pets, and give rabies vaccination and nail trimming to pets regularly to reduce the risk of infection.
