Hi Rajesh
Welcome to HealthcareMagic.
Instances like that definitely need Rabies vaccination.Hope you had given your kid vaccination.
Though it is unlikely that your puppy is a rabid , it is important that you take maximum safety measures.Rabies is a dreadful disease for which specific treatment is not yet available.
Take care
