Do they do titers for lyme? Vaccine reactions are scary!

Pepper had a terrible reaction (3 days after) to his 3rd puppy vaccination: seizures, induced coma, the works... we nearly lost him. Not to mention the cost in monetary terms. Since then, Pepper has only had one more vaccination: Parvo. And only, because there were several cases in our suburb and his Titre tests indicated lack of protection. It took quite a while, though, to find a vet who would get a mono dose vaccine, as most only offer combo vaccines. Anyway, before any repeats there will be Titre test again.
Glad to hear, your baby was ok!
