Rest assured guys, this isn't my big lug. Actually, a friend of mine who owns an outside dog, said that it is normal for her to get into fights with strays that enter her yard. She said she was surprised by a strange screeching sound of an anmial getting hurt and didn't think anything of it.
She had a few neighbors stated that a fox was running in the neighborhood and headed toward their yard. So, now she is worried about her dog and asked me what she should do.
I asked is she vaccinated with rabies and she said yes, but according the records, she has to get re-rabie shots by the end of March. (That's when the rabie's vaccination expires.)
The only thing I could tell her was if she called the police to alert them to this. She said no as she thought it was just a stray dog and I began to worry. I told her she should at least report to the police. They'll probably want to keep a close eye on her. That scared her as she doesn't want her dog taken away from her. I told her, she has to report it non the less.
So my question is, even though she has her rabies shot every year, is it possible that they can still get the rabie disease?
