  5. I recently finished an anti-rabies vaccine course back in September 2016, but today, on November 14, 2016, I got bitten again by my young dog on the lower lip. There's a small wound with some bleeding involved. The dogs just 5.5 months old and has all his vaccinations up to date. Do I need to get vaccinated again? What should I do now?
