Default looking for advice...

I know he is not a yorkie, but, i would love any input on what i should do...I took Benjamin in for his 4th round of DHPP on Monday...within an hour of it his face and eyes swelled up...i called the emergency vet (since his vet had closed) and they had me give him some benedryl and wait an hour...it did begin to go down. However, now i am very concerned about the rabies shot they want to give him on the 18th of this month. They want me to bring him in in the am, and they want to have an iv in, and give him shots beforehand (something for allergic reaction). I know he needs to have the rabies shot, but, am i doing the right thing by taking him now for it? He just turned 16 weeks yesterday. He is due to be neutered on the first of June.This is a picture of his eye before it got really swollenIMG_1629.JPG

and this is a picture of how he laid in my lap for over and hour after giving him the benedryl...i put a cool washcloth across his eyes because they were so swollen and red....IMG_1630.JPG

I feel really nervous about this....
