Deuce just had a bad reaction to his Bordatella intranasal vaccine this time. He has had the intranasal vaccine before (5 Years) with no ill effects. We are using a new vet since we moved and the product they used caused Deuce to come down with Kennel Cough. They used IntraTrac3 so it is a combo of things - Bordetella, adenovirus, and parainfluenza. Unfortunately I did not ask BEFORE they gave it to him and my poor boy was miserable. Yep I had to go back and get antibiotics for him - they charged me of course. He's fine now. It took about 4 days to get over. So for the next time? The shot is safer? Or should I go with nothing at all. I do not board him, I do my own grooming, and there is no way I'd let him run around with big dogs at a dog park. I do take him for walks though.

I's also wondering if the problem with the vaccine was its administration. Does a vaccine have to be mixed or diluted before being given or is it just purchased by the vet dose ready?? Anybody know?
