Take the raccoon to your vet and have it tested for rabies and have your dogs examined. if you can get to the vet now store whats left of the raccoon in a cooler and get it in tomorrow. Most labs that do rabies testing are open on the weekend. You don't want to have to do rabies testing on your dog.





Try to find the head, the tail won't work. Regardless talk to your vet tomorrow and find out what you should do - different areas have different procedures for dealing with possible rabies exposures.My friends puppies ate a racoon that also was thought to have bitten one of the dogs what should she do?
';Do';?


Nothing but don't feed as much tonight.


I couldn't even count how many coon my dogs have taken.
Quarantine the dog away from people and animals and contact your vet and the local dog warden.
Is there anything left of the raccoon? Can the head be found, and tested for rabies?
Take the dog to the vet, racoons carry rabies!
