Hurry catch the dog

Our male dog bit one of Ruby's friends last week. We sent him to the doctor, where they saw it was superfical and gave him a tetanus shot, and told him to check on the dog's rabies status.
Well, the dog is fine, but never got vaccinated...my step son doesn't believe in vaccinations. (It's a long story).
So now we had to pay out about 70 dollars american so the boy can get a series of anti rabies shots.
We also had to get the vet over here to vaccinate the dogs and cat.
And, of course, the dog that caused all the trouble jumped the fence and stayed away until he saw the vet leave.
What the dog doesn't know is that I can give a subcutaneous shot to a dog...so the vet left the vaccine and we will have to get a couple boys and blankets and ropes and catch the dog tomorrow when he is sleeping...
Dr. Herriott, call your office.
