Hello,
About two years ago I lost my pup to a rabies shot. She was 9 months old at the time and we waited because she was small. I stayed at the vets office just to make sure she was okay. She started acting a little fatigue so I gave her the puppy nutrical and she woke up more. When I left she was totally fine. The next morning we woke up and did our normal routine. About an hour later she passed away. I found he cuddled up in her bed. We later found out it was the rabies shot. Like said before it is rare but to this day it still scares me when I get another puppy. You may want to look on one of the other threads about vaccinations. Because they said there are two different types of rabies vaccinations. One is a single dose, the other is something else but it has preservatives and many think this is the one that usually gives the pups the problems. Also research on the net has shown that it is better to wait for the rabies shot in pups til they are a year old because the vaccination is contraindicated because it has no affect for most til they are a year old. Again it would be better to discuss your worries with your vet, but after all that happened to me I reaseached it along with my breeder and this is what we came up with.

I jsut read the thread yesterday where they had some of this info.
