how I got bitten is i saw the stray dog in the neighborhood and went to playandpat him. he was ok and seem to enjoy it. then my mobile phone rang. it must have triggered him and he became aggressive. i quickly walked away but he came for me and bit my calf...why dogs doesn't like sound of mobile phone ringing???

3. Is Singapore rabies-free?
Yes, Singapore has been rabies-free since 1953. However, there are still reported cases of rabies in our neighbouring countries. To prevent rabies from coming into Singapore, AVS works closely with border control agencies, such as the Immigration and Checkpoints Authority and Police Coast Guard, to implement precautionary measures. These precautionary measures, which include dog licensing and strict import controls, help to curb the smuggling of unlicensed animals into Singapore. AVS also identifies dog populations in areas with potentially higher risk of rabies introduction (e.g. dogs on coastal fish farms) and conducts precautionary rabies vaccination for these dogs.
