I got scratched by my pet dog’s teeth. There is just one point of blood clot. He is fully vaccinated. Do I need to get a tetanus shot?

Even though, there is nothing to be worried about but you and a pet dog should always get vaccinated for rabies, also if not taken tt vaccine in last one year, you should take it, otherwise no need.
