| 2nd shots Hi All, I read the thread about shots. I have a 12 week old baby. She weighs 1 pound and 9 ozs. We got shots yesterday and she doesn't want to walk much. She wants to keep her legs tucked under. The vet also found a small hernia between her back leg and her tummy. He said it was common and could be fixed very easily. I don't remember her walking funny the night we got her. I'm terrified somethings wrong with her. Help!! |

| I would call your vet since you don't know if she is having a reaction to her shots or if it is the hernia. Good luck!

| I also think you should contact your vet, she might be having pain or a reaction to the shots or it can be the hernia. I hope your little one start feeling better soon. |

| Did the vet give her more than one shot? I think it is best, especially for the tinies, which yours is based on it's weight, to only get one shot at a time and wait three weeks between shots. They are so little and the shots are strong and giving more than one can make them sick. Don't let him give LEPTO ever and there are is only one vaccine that is required by law, and that is the rabies which small yorkies shouldn't get until 6 months because of the potency of the shot. I would research the web because there is a lot of controversy on whether our pets are over vaccinated and what the ramifications of this are. I am constantly researching this area because I believe that many of the ailments our babies develop are because of these strong vaccines. I would take her to a homepathic vet and get a second opinion. Hope she feels better soon. |
