It is not that it was the 3 yr - it was the Rabies period as some dogs are more sensitive than others

it may take a month or more for the bump to go away - do Not put her under and have it removed - that is unecessary and the vet is just going to make big bucks and do more harm than good. it will go away in time

This reaction and bump are quite common in our little dogs - both from 1 yr and 3 yr vaccines and thank goodness you had the 3 yr so now she doesn't go thru this again soon - plus let me close by saying that most of the ones that have a reaction the first time never have that reaction again - seems therir bodies get a better immunity to it .

Hope this helps
