| Puppy Shots? Well, I initially posted in Health, but was advised to come here for better information. I was posting asking for advice on giving my 10 wk old puppy his second set of shots. I purchased the shot and was going to administer it myself, but got cold feet due to his small size...big needle...little body...and not sure exactly where to inject on such a small speciman. I have always given my own shots myself to my animals, but never to anything so small. Then, it was mentioned that vaccinating a Yorkie puppy has a controversial side which I was not aware of. So, could someone advise me. T.J. has already had his first shot by his breeder with no complications. |

| Since the littermate to yours got Parvo (pos. test) I would go to your vet for shots. You can bring the shots in to him and for him/her to advice you. He may use yours or may decide to wait. You need to have your past record with you so he/she knows what your pup got last time and when it was given. That is my best advice for you. If s/he decides that your pup looks healthy and wants to give it its shot - he can show you how. |
