Has anybody been through this before? Any side effects from the treatment? My vet gave him a shot this morning and said he will need another one in 2 weeks. He said that usually gets over 90% of the mites and we might have to get a third injection.
Since this is an indication of a compromised immune system, you should also not get any more puppy vaccinations until he is completely healed. Continuing to vaccinate with a serious medical condition may only lead to further illness down the road.......
