HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern for your mother and from the history given here I could say that if the dog is not infected with rabies and did not bite to other one then no need to worry about this, more over this is just a superficial bruise as you said here, then no need to go for vaccination, hope this information helps you, take care and have a nice day.
