I am so sorry to hear Barney isn't well. I hope all the tests come back good and that he doesn't have lepto. I am glad to hear he is feeling alright, poor little guy, give him a hug for me!!
How is the new lepto vaccine different from the old one?
Does it cover more strands?
Last I was told, lepto has several strands of the virus and the current vaccine only protected against one of those. So even if you got the shot you could still end up with lepto with the strands that weren't covered plus you still had the added worry of a reaction to the shot.
The local vets here don't give the lepto vaccine in toy breeds because of the dangers of a reaction to it. |
