We go in, the tech gives him a benedryl shot. We wait 15 mins then we get the lyme shot.
Thank you. I am still researching it. My dog barely goes outside. We do take him out from time to time to go potty but for the most part, he has a puppy pad. Now that it is getting colder, he hates going out hahahaha
