I took my 4mth puppy to the vet for reworming. I also got his 3rd shot. I asked vetenarian about giving him the full syringe.
She said it's not the size of the dog but the brand of vaccination shot. She gave him the full dose.
I noticed he was shaking at the vet but thought maybe he was cold. My lil boy continued to shake after we came home. HE was also in too much pain to be picked up and wasn't eating. I figured it was the shot and kept an eye on him. The next morning he still wasn't eating and threw up a yellowish liquid. He is doing fine now but this made me ANGRY because he was fine before I took him to the vet.

I just can't take him back to that vet and think I should find another one.
Anyone have any thoughts on this??
