KimberlySRN, I am so sorry for your loss... |
Thank you... I never knew about the reactions to immunizations, I just assumed my vet would lead me in the right direction. I even told him that she got very woozy when she got her boosters. My new vet I was in tears when I told her the story about Evee, and she reassured me that she would take care of my Suri and possibly waive her completely but so far she has done great with her immunizations, which I give her at home just in case. If she ends up getting the rabies shot I will make sure to go early in the morning and stay in the lobby for a while just in case. After Evee I didn't know if I could get another (my breeder offered me another pup when I was ready), but by talking to a few people here and my breeder I feel close to Evee because Suri looks at me the way she did.
Just remember to always ask questions...when we go to the doctor we never let the doctor treat us without asking tons of questions, it is the same for our pets. (and if the vet doesn't like it, move on
)
