I just do not understand if they titer for rabies in humans why we cannot in dogs to keep them safe from disease.
You're welcome. I hope that your little one is doing okay.

Part of the studies The Rabies Challenge Fund is financing is to establish a rabies titer standard for dogs. The one currently used is the standard set for humans by the World Health Organization, and it is then extrapolated to other mammal species.
