no. just because your dog eats a rabbit doesnt mean that it will become a wild dog. all dogs are natural carnivores (whether wild or domesticated) and do not go from tamed to wild just from eating meat or vice versa. my dog loves meat... but he's still the most pansiest (said in the most loving of tone) dog ive meet.

Your dog will not turn wild but you should know that wild rabbits often have tapeworms. Watch your dog's stools for worms that look like grains of rice. If you see anything like that bring a stool sample and the dog to the vet. If you don't see signs of worms, nothing to worry about.

I have dogs who have caught, killed and eaten wild bunnies on several occassions. No, they're just normal dogs... and they still like the housecat.
They eat raw meat all the time.. but for what its worth, my Samoyeds used to hunt mice etc... even when I fed them kibble.

No, your pet will not turn wild. It just means he has a high prey drive and will obviously go after small prey, so keep an eye on him. You never know what diseases wild animals might have.

No your dog will not go wild. It has had the taste of fresh blood & will go hunting more often to get it & may attack & kill other animals cause of that first taste.
On farms a dog that kills chickens is killed cause they got the taste & WILL continue to kill. The same with an egg sucker. That first taste will lead to more killing just to get that fresh taste.

No, but they will probably try to catch a rabbit again.

If your dog got rabies shots, (s)he will be fine.

Um, no. If you eat a goose does it mean you can fly?
