As crazy as it sounds, I just had a bad feeling about them. He got his 1st set & had an allergic reaction to 1 of them, ran a high temp & severe vomiting for 5 days.He couldn't even stand up. He does get a lot of exercising. My boys & husband come home everyday & play chase & other games with him. So I don't have to worry about that. I've never let him walk out in my yard b/c there are my neighbor's dogs around. He hasn't been neutered yet. I think it's a combination of marking his territory, being spoiled, & going fm squating to hiking his leg. He was completely trained then I was gone for 3wks for surgery. I had family stay at my home & they painted & redid the living rm so his pad was moved n there but no where else n the house. He was mad when I got home & would pee & poop everywhere but on the pads. He'll go on the pad a little now & I give him a treat & make a big deal over it. But if I do go out he apparently blames it on my husband & pees on his side of the bed while we are gone! I've thought about buying a "Puppy Apartment" which has mixed reviews. I just know that my house smells like pee & poop. He's ruined our carpet so I've got to do something soon! |
Probably if you take him to a different vet, perhaps even an internist, they will take a careful history, review his previous vax records, do any testing the vet thinks might be necessary to week out any conditions that could prompt a bad reaction, pre-medicate your dog, monitor him during the whole process, give any absolutely necessary vax's one at a time over a period of weeks and observe him in the clinic for as long as necessary after each one, perhaps even with an IV line in place, so your little one can receive the protection needed.
