Depends on your last tetanus shot. If you have completed tetanus shots in the last 10 years then you don't need one. If not, I wud advice you to get one. However, observe your dog to avoid any complications.

There will be no visible side effects if you unnecessarily take anti-tetanus shots frequently i.e. Every 5 months. It will not give any extra benefits either.

Yes.
You need full course if you have not previously ever gotten full course.
If you have taken full course and last booster shot was 6 months ago then you don't need vaccinated.
Although there is no contradiction if you still want a booster.
