In my opinion any reaction to a vaccine is a bad reaction and there is a growing controversy in this country and in the veterinary community as a whole about the damage that vaccines do to our pets and the fact that we are quite possibly over-vaccinatng them.
If you are interested in finding out more there are threads on here you can read if you search under "over vaccination" they should come up or do the same google search on the internet. I have found a really good homeopathic vet that I go to and I am not giving my dogs any more vaccines but using diet and nosodes to boost their immune system which are actually safer and more effective than traditional vaccines without the side effects.
Did your vet give your puppy more than one shot at a time and was it a "combo" shot? Once you learn more about the side effects of "vaccinosis" as the condition is called you will better be able to advise your vet on what you do and don't want for your baby.
PM me if you want more assistance finding info on this subject. I would be haapy to help and I am sorry your baby had a reaction but the absess was her body "rejecting" the poison or the vaciine in my opinion. |
