| Mia Update. Had Mia back at the vet today again for another follow up. He put her back on antibiotics and if no further improvement in two weeks he is going to refer her to a pulmonary doctor at the University of Penn. He equivilates her to like a human premie because she is so tiny. He feels this is why she is not fighting off the respiratory problem, but is happy that she has gained weight and is playful and eating. Please keep Mia in your prayers. |

| As I stated in your other thread, when a pup, especially a tiny gets vaccinated, it totally takes over their immune system, leaving nothing behind to fight off other infections, and will take 2-4 weeks before it disengages the immune system and allows it to return to normal, where it will begin again to fight off the illness. This is 'why' sick pups and dogs should never be vaccinated until they are in the clear. Also, the antibodies her immune system produced to fight off the illness could have killed off some of the vaccines she got and her body was not able to respond to the vaccines as expected, leaving her with a low level of protection. You may want to discuss revaccinating her when she is better with your vet. If this is the same vet that gave her the vaccines in the first place, I would strongly suggest finding a new vet, one that has more experience with vaccines and very small dogs. JMHO. I will pray that she makes a speedy recovery....

If this pup were mine, I would email then send blood off to Dr Dodds (Hemopet) in California. She's very reasonable and is one of the best Immunologists in the world...
