Yep, the L is for Lepto. Can't imagine why your vet would give Lepto to a Yorkie and then lie and say it was a reaction to the parvo. Don't let him give it again. It has the highest reaction rate of any vaccine and the disease itself isn't even usually fatal (but the shot can be). I question your vet's knowledge about toy breeds. If you ever let this vet anesthetize your dog, do some research first and make sure he is doing what is safest for your little one.

Lepto is caused from bacteria in stagnant water and the vacine only is good for like 4 strains of the 50 out there. Do you live in an area where there are lakes, rivers, ponds, etc.?
