My dog is fine, though, which is the most important thing to me. The raccoons scratched my arm kinda bad and my legs are covered in scratches. My doctor can’t be sure if the raccoons had saliva on their claws, and wants me to get rabies shots just in case. She sent me to an ER because she can’t get the shots in our area.

I’ve been at the hospital for 3 hours and haven’t been seen.

It’s after my bedtime and I have to wake up at 5am for work…

I’m not having a good time.

    Exactly. I don’t want rabies. And thank you! My dog didn’t realize we were being attacked and wanted to play with the critters. Made it harder to get him inside. I didn’t even realize I was injured until some time later when I noticed scratches on me. Adrenaline is crazy.
