Hello... my puppy had its first health check up with the vet today... everything went fine.. his temp.. heart rate.. and even his fecal sample.
But as for his vaccination, the vet recommended that my puppy should get the first puppy shot again even though I told them and showed them that puppy already had 2 of his puppy shots. He's 10 weeks old at the moment.. one shot at 6 weeks and another one at 8. I was told that breeder got the vaccination from the vet and stored it in the fridge and she administered it herself. I also told the vet this....
The vet was "concerned" that the shot may not have been administered correctly.. or was stored in wrong temperature and was convincing me that we should just disregard those puppy shots and start fresh...
so he ended up getting his first shot again.. Im a bit worried since it might be over doing the med and it wasn't necessary.
should I be worried? Or is this normal thing the vets do?
Thanks in advance.
