How old is she? So all of these are given annually?

The vet can premedicate with Benadryl next time and send her home with a pain med made for dogs. They should be split up and the only one that should be given yearly (if you do it at all) is bordatella.

Rylee's protocol is:
DHPP and rabies every 3 years (after one year booster)
Lepto yearly.
Bordatella yearly (my jury is still out on this one - he needs to be "board-able").

I'd probably play around with the DHPP, but the rescue where I got him is watching to make sure he stays current...

Ellie's protocol:
Rabies every 3 years.
Distemper and parvo when titer is low AND I'm in the mood to get it. Because everything sets her tummy off, I have chosen to be very minimalist with her. This protocol is definitely not recommended by most vets and is not one that should be followed in most cases.
