Q: Has anyone been bitten by a dog in China?
If you have did, did you get the rabies shots? How much did it cost?

I've never been bitten buy a dog period in life . I will admit I go WAY out of my way to avoid passing stray dogs every time I see them here though . They look like they're teeming with rabies yick
I got my rabies shots before I came... Did you get bitten?
Get your rabies shot as soon as possible if you've been bitten. Like, right now. Once rabies starts to show symptoms it's 100% fatal. I think you have a few months from the time you get bitten until you show symptoms.
I've never been bitten by a Chinese dog. In fact, they love me.
Go get your shot and then find that dog. It's time to teach the mutt the pecking order here in China. There is only one thing you can do to regain the lost face. You're going to have the eat the dog.

if you suspect the dog had rabies the only way to confirm is to exam its brain tissue,, ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, seriously !! thats the ways its done at home
My son got biten by a cat last year
go to the hospital now and start the treatment and it takes about 4 weeks of injections to get on top of it.
the doctor said that the desaese can stay dorment for years then suddenly appear.
as for the cost we only payed 500rmb but that is in asmall city in the north
but dont delay go to the doctors now
No I didn't get bitten, but in case I do, I ride my Ebike all over the place, into the country etc I've had a few dogs come out and carry on, but I have the power to get away. Just in case!! Q and A, thanks all
I've riden bikes for years, dogs want to chase bikes, sometimes they get right in front of you.don't try to kick them and you shouldn't get bit
Actually i have not had a Chinese dog chase me or seen them chase a bike or car, maybe they are lazy or know if they do, they will be lunch!
I don't know, the dogs here seem to keep to themselves. People don't seem to train them to be mean either. Whenever I hear a story of someone being bit, I assume they did something stupid.
