As I explained on this page, there are two very separate considerations here: damage to the person bitten and rabies vaccine status. Keep calm, read those two in the article, and see what comes your way. BTW: you do know that your dog being "out of date" by a month doesn't mean he's rabid, right? Crazy as that sounds, I get questions like that more than I think would be the case.
