Dog rabies is divided into two types: violent type and paralytic type. The violent type of rabies usually dies within six to eight days after the onset, and in a few cases, it can extend to ten days. The paralytic type has a shorter survival time and will die in only two to four days. The incubation period for dogs naturally infected with rabies ranges from one week to sixteen months, with an average of one month. The best prevention and treatment method is to vaccinate dogs against rabies. Dogs carry rabies virus and can live forever if there is no attack. If an attack occurs, the dog can only live for about 10 days.
