However, I don't want to throw an owner into panic mode saying reaction is very likely. It is definitely not for just DHPP. I'm talking about reactions that happen right away here...not ones that happen years down the road b/c I don't think anybody knows about that for sure. At 1.1 pounds, I would be very nervous too, but if the vet thinks it's ok, then there is really no way around it unless OP wants to skip puppy shots and that could be extremely dangerous.
Brandi died from DHPP- granted she had a reaction to prior vaccine and then did it again but it does happen and separating the vaccines is safer if you can do it and the vet carries it so the dog is not exposed to everything all at once especially for a tiny dog like this

I thought ellie had a reaction to lepto?
