Just a thought for next year, the rabies should never be given on the same day as any other vaccine 1) because it is so potent and their body shouldn't have to deal with anything else that day and 2) if there is a reaction you wouldn't know which one caused it.

Also, if she is only 12 weeks old, she shouldn't be done with her DHPP yet. Starting too early and stopping too early can leave pups unprotected. The last DHPP should be given between 16 and 18 weeks.
If I had known I probably would have asked to wait but our dogs have always gotten rabies on the same day as their other shots and done fine. I suppose that every vet is a little different. When looking at her shot record our vet said that she was done with everything until next year. She told me that Gracie may be a little tired this evening and what adverse effects to watch for but you can't even tell that Gracie got shots! It IS a relief to have it over with!!
