Hello, Welcome to Chat Doctor, As your husband was bitten by a pet dog and has washed the wound and taken TT injection, I would like to know whether there was any bleeding after the bite. Your husband need to take at least three doses of antirabies vaccines on days 0,3 and 7. You need to observe the biting dog for 10 days. If the biting animal develop any symptoms of rabies or dies during this period, he needs to take remaining two doses of antirabies vaccine on days 14 and 28. If there is any bleeding, he needs to take anti rabies immunoglobulin also, it is because rabies is 100 5 fatal, but it is 100% preventable by proper and adequate treatment. Thank you.
