Default Swelling of vaccination entry?????

Oops, subject line should read, swelling at vaccination entry!

On Monday my furbaby received the last of his puppy shots plus the rabies shot. While brushing and petting him today, I noticed a dime sized bump in between his shoulders it appears to be where the vaccination was given. When I touched it didn't seem to bother him at all. He continues to play, eat, sleep, and relieve himself as normal. I called the emergency vet and explained to her what I felt, she reassured me that this was normal and that the bump may be there for several months and not to worry about it unless it gets bigger or it begins to become bothersome to him. I felt a little better, but wanted to know from the real "experts", better known as yorkie owners, if anyone of you have ever experienced this reaction to a vaccination?

Thanks and happy holidays!
Tracy and Mocha
