(not rabies)when she was a baby and had to be rushed back to the office and hooked up to an I.V. and given baby Benadryl for days (different vet). SCARED me to DEATH!! We immediately switched vets and this vet says he ALWAYS gives the pill to the little ones before giving them ANY shots. Haven't had any problems with Piper or Pixie with any vaccinations, including the Rabies vacs, (knock on wood) so I think the pill does make a difference.
Scamp went through exactly the same as yours did,with his 2nd shots he got a shot of Benadryl & he was fine afterwards,he always has to get a shot of it now before he gets any shots now
