Is Anti Rabies Vaccination Required?

I cant say that i had a dog bite since, the dog actually tried to bite me but i escaped.. However, i felt some kind of bite. When i examined portion of my leg , where i felt that i got bitten, there were no wounds / nor scratched. I was wearing a jeans pant. I went a hopsital and got checked. The doc said that the vaccination is not required. But some how i am not convinced,. I am worried. Can u please help me... can i go and take the vaccination now. Its been 3 days... please help !!!!
