Its not your fault, we do what we need to for them and trust our vets know whats the best for our babies.
I had the same reaction with a pup when my vets office messed up on a pup and gave lepto in the puppy shot. I know how scary it is to see them so swollen. Hopefully the vet can quickly get it under control.
Odds are it was the Lepto in the shot that caused the reaction. (DHLP has lepto)
I never use Lepto. Some vets don't know the problems it can cause with toy breeds. Even though I think they should. To be fair though, the vet can't tell which pup will have a reaction to any shot and in some areas Lepto is a real danger even to people.
I never advise all shots at once. Rabies is one I advise at 6 months or so but some vets will do it earlier because its the law.
Your baby should be fine once they get the swelling down and will probably stay on benadryl or something for a bit. I would advise to always give benadryl prior to any shots from here on out. You may also hang out at the vets office for about 30 min. after the shot was given to be on the safe side.
I hope Romeo comes home soon. |
