No...U r fine...
Similar incident happened to me, but doctor told nothing to worry...
But make sure you vaccinate your dog properly without fail...
Personal experience..
your dog needs to get his shots, but he's probably still immune to rabies, if he had rabies he would bite you, and you can only get the virus from being bitten, eating infected flesh or organ transplant. a dog cant tranmit the virus in the saliva until 2-3 weeks before it dies of the virus, and it would show symptoms in a week or less if it was capable of transmitting rabies. and pet rabies shots last longer than a year in reality, but just up date his shots
are you foaming from the mouth..? if yes, you have a problem. if not, I'm sure it was nothing especially since it didn't bite you.
