So sorry to hear about your bad experience. Now that your done with the puppy round I would recommend you ask your Vet about a Titer test. Because we are small breed owners I feel it is very important for all to know about titering. It's a blood test that measeures antibodies which will determine if your pup is in need of certain vaccines. Some vaccines last longer than others and over vacinnating can cause allergies, skin conditions, arthritis and even cancer. I usually have some extra blood drawn at heartworm time for the titer test. As for the 7 in 1 vaccine, I peronally don't think it's the best thing for pup's under 35lb. Small pup's and pup's under 3 years of age are more likely to have a reaction than larger and older pup's. Hope your baby is feeling better
