Who told u ur dog has rabies ?? Only a vet can make that determination and if he did, he would not allow u to take the dog home under any conditions. U would have to undergo rabies treatment as would everyone else who had contact with a rabid dog. U have been mislead or if u think ur dog may have somehow contacted rabies, why r u wasting time here, when u should be seeking immediate help from an ER and a vet. and the proper authorities.

How would someone know if your dog has rabies, unless they are a vet. A vet would put your animal down and then send it off to be tested, and you would have to start on the shots to prevent yourself from getting it. In some cases a vet might quarantine the animal and observe him for rabies symptoms rather than putting him down, but probably only if he's not already displaying symptoms. Also, from your other questions I take it you have at least one child, under no circumstances should you have a rabid dog around a child, yourself, or even other pets. I'm not sure at all why you are asking this.
Does your do run around outside, unsupervised? Is your dog vaccinated against rabies? Does your dog even have rabies symptoms? Your question seems strange to me.

Take the dog to the vet for testing immediately. It the dog has rabies there might be something they can do beside putting it down. But you should not be around rabid animals, whether pregnant or not. Also, if you have cat's, don't change the litter while pregnant.

Um... if your dog has rabies it's not safe to be around. Take it to the vet, see what they can do for it. But do not keep a dog with rabies around! To my knowledge rabid animals die eventually from the disease. Why would you even think of keeping it?

Go to a Specialist and get your blood tested. SOON. and if so then the doctor will treat you accordingly to the results. Put the dog to sleep before anything bad happens or the baby comes. Have the doctor check the baby too. Do be careful, a babies life is very precious and not to be taken lightly.
