I'm sorry to hear your pup is not feeling well.....I would keep an eye on him since he is showing some signs of distress......
I just wanted to mention that the vet should have administered just one vaccine at the visit. With every additional vaccine done this greatly increases the possibility of an adverse reaction, the vaccines will/can also interact with each other, which can/will result in a poor or incomplete response......
AS for the "flu "vaccine this is a new product and was granted a
conditional license to this vaccine, many vets feel that this vaccine has dubious effectiveness and known propensity to adverse reactions.
During the
conditional period, data will be gathered on “product purity, product safety under normal conditions of use in field safety trials and demonstration that the product has a reasonable expectation of efficacy.”
The Canine Influenza Virus-H3N8 (CIV) vaccine will be up for regular licensing in one year
unless evidence (provided by an emerging population of dogs soon to fall victim to vaccine junkie vets) shows that it is ineffective and/or results in a higher than acceptable number of adverse reactions. Will your dog be the guinea pig to test its effectiveness and risks?
Dr. Cynda Crawford, one of the flu’s discovers, calls the number of dogs who have died of this disease “a drop in the bucket” of the nations 70 million dogs. It is my belief that the number of dogs adversely affected by reactions to vaccines, especially drugs rushed to market, would overflow that bucket many times over.
I would pass on this one......
