are packs of rabid dogs roaming the streets something about the 15th to 20th centuries that I should know about

Not really, it's just that before the rabies vaccine and before any sort of organizations to control animals, encountering roving animals with rabies was a real danger with no easy solution. You can still get rabies from nearly any animal, and I'm sure that people in the 3rd century and such got rabies too.
