Re: Scared of rabies?
You've had him for a week. Your puppy doesn't have rabies, but IF he had been exposed prior to you getting him, he would be very sick if not gone by now. By the time the virus reaches the point of being communicable, it's ~10 days before the animal passes. It would be less in a small puppy.
You know he hasn't been exposed since you've had him. So if he's been healthy for the seven days you've had him, you know for certain he does not have rabies. If you want to feel better, you can keep an eye on him for another three days - but it's all but guaranteed you are in the clear.
