Thanks for the advice. I know it may just me the shot but it still has me worried. I am such a worry wart so that isn't going to go away. The good news he is eating and will walk regularly when I take him out. I didn't see any limping.

Though I did video him when I pressed into his thigh on both sides he would yelp and pull away. This way I can show the vet. There are times he is fine and other times he is yelping. Maybe the shot exacerbated it.

He is just not being himself i.e. tail wagging happy to see me. Doesn't want any belly rubs. And to top it all off my video camera I have set up to watch them at work broke so now I will be worrying like crazy. Ugh. I am gonna order another one ASAP. My dog walker will look out for any signs as I mentioned to her what happened. This site is just a great place to vent and also get amazing advice.
