| Vaccination tip Hi everyone, Just wanted to let you know about our last visit to the vet for Maggie's rabies vaccination in case this info is useful to you too. In May, Maggie had her distemper vaccine and was sick for a few days. When I mentioned this to the vet during her last trip for the rabies vac the vet said it may have been an allergic reaction. SO, this time the vet gave her a bit of benedryl first - then the rabies vac. This was the BEST vet visit yet and there was no crying, reactions, side effects, etc.!! I had read a few posts on YT about bad reactions to the rabies vaccine and I was worried Maggie might have a bad time with it - I almost thought of postponing the vaccine until she was a little bigger. Anyway, it was a great visit and I wanted to share that tip with YT.

Donating Senior Yorkie Talker | Goo tip Good to know. My vet puts the vacinations in different spots, so he knows what if any reaction and where it hapened. So far the Lyme is the worst. He told me that Aiden may have a fevr,and be sore so he gave me a bottle of baby asprin for free. He screamed for a good 4 minutes non -stop But my vet is so sweet, he always has the nurse hold my animals so they do'nt associate pain with mom. He also gives them a treat and a "prize" afterwards. The last time we went he got a little teething toy

| mkawczak, I noticed that you are located in New York and so am I. I was wondering if you can share your vet's name since he sounds very nice and knowledgeable. I am thinking of switching our vet and yours sounds good. Thanks! |
