Do puppies have rabies virus?

Whether a puppy has rabies depends on the animals and environment it has been exposed to. Rabies is a viral disease that occurs in all mammals, including wild animals, poultry, and livestock.

Puppies may be at risk of contracting rabies if they come into contact with rabies-infected animals (such as foxes, raccoons, bats, etc.). Additionally, puppies who are not vaccinated against rabies are at a higher risk of contracting the virus.

Rabies is spread through animal saliva, usually through a bite or scratch from an infected animal. If your puppy is bitten or scratched, especially if the bite or scratch comes from an animal of unknown origin, you should contact a veterinarian immediately for evaluation and treatment.

Therefore, in order to protect the health of puppies and prevent rabies, it is recommended to receive rabies vaccinations in time and avoid contact with animals and environments that may have rabies. At the same time, if you find that your puppy has abnormal symptoms, you should take it to the hospital for examination in time to ensure its health and safety.
