rabies vaccine
Rabies is a deadly viral disease, which spreads to humans and animals through infected animal bites, nails or saliva. This virus mainly affects the brain and nervous system. In most cases, the disease spreads from dogs, cats, monkeys and foxes, but in India, there is the highest risk of infection due to dog bites. Once the symptoms of rabies start, it is almost impossible to treat, so it is very important to prevent timely. Vaccination is the most effective way to avoid this disease, whether it is human or pets.
After entering the body of rabies virus, it reaches the brain through muscles and nerves. Initial symptoms include fever, headache, weakness, nervousness, and restlessness, but when it grows, it delivers paralysis, confusion, seizures and coma. Its effect in humans is serious and after being infected, the chances of death are very high. Similarly, if dogs are not vaccinated with rabies on time, then they themselves can also be infected and become a threat to humans. Regular vaccination of pet dogs is not only necessary for their safety, but it is also mandatory for the health of your family and the neighborhood.

Dr. NR Rawat at Rajasthan Veterinary and Animal Sciences University It is said that it is necessary to adopt a correct vaccination schedule to protect the couple dogs from rabies. Typically, the puppies are vaccinated with the first rabies at the age of 3-4 months. After this, booster dose is given at the age of one year. After that it is necessary to get a booster dose every year so that their immunity remains strong. If the dog is not already waxinated, animal doctors can advise two doses on a 3-4 weeks gap.
Street dogs should also be caught and vaccinated at least once so that the risk of infection is reduced. It is important to keep in mind that for vaccination, only arids and animal doctors should be confirmed vaccine. Getting vaccine at the right time not only saves the life of your pet, but also eliminates the danger of rabies in humans to a great extent.
