She will be getting her rabie shot at the end of the month...only because it's the law.

Joey is due for his rabie and annuals at the end of the month. I didn't know better when he was younger, so they gave him his shots all at once and it didn't bother him. Now I'm afraid...so he shouldn't get them all at once?
They may not be able to split the rabie shots.
I know they give small dogs the same dosage as big dogs.
No wonder it makes a small dog sick.

I do know some who do split the annual shot in two shots (2 weeks apart)on puppies and small dogs.
I do not do the annuals and rabies at the same time..because it does make mine sick.
I get the rabies one month and the annuals a month or two later.
I think it's too hard on their system, to get both at the same time.
