Hey everyone , do you think I have rabies… answer with this evidence:

this day i had many cuts and scrapes on my hands(im clumsy) and i went to my friends home and her doggy licked them and stuff, he’s cute and wasn't rabid-acting, im pretty sure he had his shots, they go to a vet, they are very responsible.

this day we(my friend and i ) went for a walk we were in a field and my friends, friends dog( also my acquaintance) was running around in the field with the girl's owner, the dog came up to us and started to play with up, its mouth was foamy, well yeah white spit, but it wasn't rabid it WAS very nice and playful…(you know when you do a lot of exercise with no water and your spit gets all dry, well it was like that)i asked my friend if it was rabid and she said obviously not it was her best friends dog, and all are required vaccines(gee it was so cute!) so it licked me too(my friend was having fun, while iw as scared)

Both of these families i know are both very responsible and they take good care of their dogs.

i know i dont have rabies, but i want more opions, my mother concurs with me.


Answer:
You are correct. You don’t have rabies. If you already know that, is there some reason that you wasted 5 points to ask the question?

Answer:
You don't have rabies. Dogs who have rabies don't run and jump and play. They are very sick. And in an incredibly bad mood with it.

Answer:
Im pretty sure there’s no way you can have rabies if you were licked by those dogs. I work at a vet office, and the usual way you pick up rabies is if you get bitten by an animal that has rabies. If the dogs have had their shots, and they are all up to date, then you should be fine. IF the dogs did have rabies, and they’ve had rabies for a while, they would NOT be friendly, they would be very aggressive and irritable, and they would most likely not make it past two weeks since they’d acquired it. Also, check out the links under sources. Hope this helps. (=
