Hi and WELCOME - so glad you joined us! Yorkie Talk Stalker...I like that !

Your little girl sounds just adorable...I'm so sorry to hear she was from a puppy mill. Bc of this, I'd especially recommend you get insurance on her asap -- and have the vet document in her records right now that there are no knee problems. That way, if she gets LP down the road...the surgery will be covered if you get insurance now. Puppy mill dogs can develop health problems, so insurance would be a really good idea. I have it on all 3 of mine, and they're not mill dogs - but still have some issues. It's saved me thousands of dollars!

On the reactions...now that you know she has them - you'd want to give her Benadryl about 45mins before ANY future vaccine - the dose is 1-2mg per pound. Also, you want to note which vaccine caused the reaction, if you can. If the vaccine in question is not a Core vaccine, then don't give it again, ever. If you don't know the core vaccines etc - go here: http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/yor...-overview.html

Again, so glad you joined and am looking forward to learning more about your little spitfire !
