Oh gosh, poor Bobo. I'm glad hes doing better, but that is scary and sad for him and for you! My Dexter had a moderate allergic reaction to his vaccinations his first time also. Nothing that serious, but his little body was covered in hives and his eyes swelled shut, also he was screaming in pain when I touched the site of the shots, just petting him. From this point forward, we now do vaccines a week apart for him, he gets a pain shot before them and a shot of benedryl with them. This has worked for us. Your vet would I'm sure be more than happy to set up something like that. Its much safer for your baby that way. My Fletcher is bigger and had absolutely no reaction at all to the same shots (and they are brothers from the same liter!)
