(B) The dog shall be examined immediately after it has bitten anyone and again at the end of the ten-day period.
(C) If, at the end of this ten-day period, a veterinarian is convinced the dog is free from rabies, he or she shall order the dog released from quarantine or the pound, as the case may be.
