You're a GREAT MOM for being so on top of it & rushing Zhoie back to the vet. I'm glad to hear she is ok

My ZoE always gets a dose of meds prior to her shots. ZoE's breeder's vet records, which were faxed to our vet, stated that both the dame & sire were reactive to shots, so our vet was cautious with her right off the bat. The only time she had any kind of reaction was with her first rabies shot. It made her very tired for a day & she had a nasty lump on the back of her shoulders for a few weeks, that got smaller & smaller until it eventually went away

So happy that your beautiful Zhoie is alright

Very scary! I am relieved to hear Zhoie is okay. Max is due for his DHPPV and he is almost 5. Now I am really nervous.

Keeping Zhoie in my prayers for a safe dental.

I'm curious...is the DHPPV different from the DHPP? What's the V part for?

I've only known DHPP & DHLPP.

Glad to hear Zhoie is doing ok now. Prayers for her dental to go well. My Bentley hasn't been feeling well for a few weeks...I know how much we worry about them.

They are the same. Here is a link that explains it:

Our Ebon (corgi type dog) just had shots yesterday while she was in for stomach distress. OH took her in so not certain exactly what she got but I know one of them was the distemper and another was the rabies. (She was due so they did the whole lot then and there.) She's been kind of down and not herself today but not certain if it's from the injections or the stomach trouble.
I don't want to get Jenna any more shots because she reacted badly to the dental one they were using there a few years ago and she also has history of cutaneous vasculitis. Is there a waiver that can be arranged for her so she doesn't have to risk a reaction or take any further shots?
I would've been frantic had anything like that happened to any of my animals. Good on you for getting it sorted right away and that Zhoie is okay.

You don't need a waiver for the DHPP. As for rabies, it all depends upon the laws in your state. Some give waivers, some do not. If she were my pup, there is no way she would have any shots. Speak with your vet about it!

I had Katie vaccinated for rabies last week, and my vet mentioned that I should wait a month for her booster shot, which is what i wanted anyway. When I asked him about titering, he said he preferred titering. The vet tech told me that some places like groomers or boarding facilities might not accept titering instead of the boosters, but I wasn't worried about that. A titer can be done for rabies, but the blood would have to be sent to California. My guess is that it would be sent to Hemopet. Katie did fine with the rabies shot, and I suppose she'd do fine with the booster shot, but I preferred to test her immunity in her blood. Poor Katie in the last few weeks at the vet had her blood drawn twice, once testing her for heart worm a few weeks before and then for the titer and also a rabies shot. She is afraid of very little, but she shook when we walked in. Our vet has such a nice way of addressing her, and he soon made Katie relax.

I am SO glad Zhoie is ok. I am not sure how I feel about shots with Taycie, the last thing she needs is something else for her little body to put up with. I am seriously thinking of titering and skipping shots.

Britster · 06-03-2013, 06:33 PM

Vaccine reactions are so scary! Jackson reacted very badly to lepto as a pup. I won't be bothering with vaccines anymore except rabies (since its required by law and he hasn't had a reaction to that one). But I'm not worried at all. Prob won't waste my money on titers either. He is almost 5 and has not had DHPP since he was 1.

107barney · 06-03-2013, 08:47 PM

Agree with brit regarding titers. My vets haven't believed in titers. I've opted to vaccinate for rabies. My 12 year olds had it this year. I didn't continue dhpp for them. I did get it for the younger dogs. I've luckily not had anyone have a reaction to anything but if I did, I don't think I would continue. My state doesn't have a medical waiver for rabies and will quarantine a dog in the shelter for a bite even if the vet gets involved. It's ridiculous since bats are the most likely carriers of rabies in my area and bats carry the rabies strain that is most transmittable to humans. But they still will quarantine any dog not up to date on rabies even when that dog has had a lifelong vaccination history. My vet told me about a dog with a severe anxiety disorder that had to be quarantined and they did not allow her to quarantine in her home. Poor thing had to go to a shelter. If the dog has a rabies tag that's current it can be quarantined at home. It scares me but I don't think I'll do rabies in 15 year olds if they live that long.

Glad Zhoie is much better what a scary thing to go through. Two weeks ago we had a bordatella done on our Kinder , she got so sick in the middle of the night. She threw up all over,poor baby. I called our vet and he said next time they will give her something.I am scared to have her get this again so I will have to talk to our vet again. Anyways glad your baby is doing well and hopefully it doesn't happen again. Susan
