| vet at lunch need help asap!!! I took MichaelAngelo for shots and they gave him the DHPPV and a new one which was the Bordetella. He did fine last time with the DHPPV but I think he may be having an allergic reation to the other. His eyes look swelled and ears blood red what can I do??? I am freakin out!!!

| I think I would take him back in. Be there at the door when they get back from lunch.Or call a diff vet and see what they say. I would be afraid if his eyes are swelling that his airway might be also.

| Is there an emergency vet center near you? Does your vet have a tech/assistant at the office? |

| i agree with the benedryl it is 1mg per pound - is there not an er vet you can call as they can walk you through it over the phone - get to the vet as well when they open - poor baby - they should not have given all that in one day the bordatella shot is stronger than intranasal - it last 1 year and intranasal 6 mos i believe also keep in mind the next vaccine will be much worse after reacting to this one so make sure vet discusses with you as some have to give benedryl before vaccines to make sure no reaction |

Donating YT 30K Club Member | I agree call an er vet and ask dose for Beydryl and give it to him and head for the vets office so you are there when they reopen. Hope he is ok.

| It is an allergic reaction bring him to the vet ASAP. When Pixie got her shots the vet told me to sit in his office for 20 minutes and look for redness of the ears and swollen face bc that was a sign of an allergic reaction. maybe he just needs a shot of benydral. Daisy always gets a shot before a vaccination bc she always has a reaction. Good luck.

| Update Gave him the benadryl and run him up to vet. They said he would be okay that he looked like he was getting over it(which his eye swelling has went down and ears are normal) but still flapping his ears some. Thanks everyone I will be more cautious next time, believe me. You guys are awesome thanks so much again!!!
