I really appreciate your concern, no this is not the sign of rabies, this could be due to fungal infection, it is advisable to watch the dog if still survive then no need to worry about this and if died then you need to see the doctor, again I say this is not the sign of rabies so no need to worry about this, hope this information helps, take care.
