Detailed Answer:
HI
Thanks for posting your query.
For prevention of rabies a 5 dose Rabies vaccine is given . The scheduel for that is 0 ( the day you consult the doctor first ), 3 ( third day from the first dose ), 7, 14 and 28 ( 28th day from the first dose or 14 th day from 4th dose )
In your case the first dose was on 6th october and so the 5th dose will be on 2 november . But in your case this schedule is not followed . So 5th dose can be taken 14 days from the last dose , i.e on 12th November.
Hope this information was useful to you.
Any clarifications feel free to ask.
Regards.

Sir
Thanks.
My Doctor had given 5th,6th ot 7th Nov as dates for 5th Dose.
I thought the response to my query might take a day or two, which could lead to delay in 5th dose. So, went to doctor last evening and he gave me 5th dose (4th dose was given on 30th oct)
Sir please guide me, now I am worried. I am in XXXXXXX really need your guidance.
Regards xxxxxx (0000)

Brief Answer:
Relax.
Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX
First of all relax, nothing is going to happen.
First of all , you were just licked by the dog , I assume there was no bleeding or there was no wound over the site licked by the dog. In such situation there was no need of Rabipur vaccine at all. Hence you are safe.
Moreover rabies vaccine has to be given 5 shots within a month and you have got that , so no need to worry from this point of view also.
So bottom line is you are fine and protected.
Take care.
Relax.
