One complete course of rabies vaccination gives immunity for at least 10 years.
But still due to non curable nature of rabies people as well as physicians have a fear in mind about this disease which always leads to over vaccinations each time u got bitten by dog or similar animal they go for vaccination.
You don’t need any more dose for next 10years as all literature suggest that one is immune for 10 years
In that case of any bite you need tetanus and local infection antibiotics in case it get infected
