The vet also gave us a different type of puppy food. I dont know the name of it cuz I didnt go to the vet so as soon as I find out ill post it up. Do the puppies get extra sleepy after there shots? Mia is here at my 2nd job with me and she has been slepping most of the time. Once again I would like to thank you all for your help!!! |
I think it depends on the dog...as far as sleeping. Sydney gets sleepy after her heartworm pill...so that may be what did it. Did the vet warn you about the side affects of the puppy shots that you are supposed to watch out for?
PS. did the vet remove the ticks for you? I would suggest you get some gentle flea and tick shampoo to bathe her in until she is old enough to have a treatment such as Frontline. I would also suggest you spray the carpets and furnature in your home with Ortho to kill any flea or tick eggs that may be living there...otherwise she may just get them back again.
Here is a picture of what Ortho looks like and you can get it at Walmart. Just make sure you read the label and that it says safe for pets...also keep the baby out of the room for about an hr. after spraying.
