I don't know anything about the treatment. I'm sure someone over your way will be able to help you, so good luck.

In Germany most dog/bitch is vaccinated against rabbies.
The only problems I know of are with puppys to young for the vaccination. The timetable is fixed by the time, the vaccination is recomendet (1 or 3 years lasting up to the fabricate). So never heard of anyone, not doing the rabbies vac because of seasonal break.
But - as vaccinations stimulate the immune system, any vaxed dog should have a bit rest afterwards (1 or 2 days should do for a fit dog - and an unfit dog is not to be vaccinated at all).
I prefer cooler weather if got the choice to minimise the load in general.

hope this helps :)
