Because of my great concern over reactions to vaccinations w/my little ones (4 5 & 6 lbs), my vet, actually, gives a benedryl injection, before the vaccination...Yes, it makes them a little sleepy, but I think it is a good preventative from reactions....I, definitely, wouldn't give lepto, unless your dog might be drinking water that is a run off from livestock pee/poop, etc...The only dogs I ever gave lepto to, were dogs on a farm, who were apt to drink water that had been exposed to urine/feces from cattle, horses, wild animals, etc....Btw, humans can get lepto from soda cans that have dried up rat urine on them, so wash those soda cans, before you drink from them!!! |
