[Sweet Apple]

I would call the vet, but I am sure she will be fine by the end of today.

I told the vet that I swear something is different with those shots. She is using the same company she always has, so it has to be with the manufacturer. Maybe nothing awful, but still something that clearly bothers them. I never had any carry on like that in the past. Thank goodness the recommendation is now every three years! I hate to see them uncomfortable like that.

You know, Lin, Dr. Runge seemed to have made quite an effort, yesterday, telling me that this shot seemed to make them sore...We even pre-medicated Apple, w/a benadryl injection...(Buzz just had a parvo booster, so he was o.k.) But I swear, before you posted this, I had the same thought about them changing the formula...Apple has had 3 dhpp shots, in her first year, and I never ever noticed anything unusual...???
