| HELP me & my Puppy out =( I went to the breeder were i got my puppy to put his shot. He is 15 weeks & weighs 18 oz. When they put the shot he screamed and cried like if he was dying!! then they put De-worming by mouth, he did not lick or swallow. then he squirt it all in & he had no other choice but to swallow it. The breeder told me to put him in his crate & let him rest till tomorrow. I massaged were they put the shot the whole way home, He was very sad. We got home i put him in his crate, & fed him, he ate, then he went too sleep, he woke up & started too play with his toys, I picked him up to give him a kiss & he started too scream like i was killing him. I told my family & they told me to rub the spot, i did, he cried for awhile then he stopped. I put him back in the crate( he wanted to pee) then picked him up & he started to sceam again! We called the breeder, & he said maybe he hit a nerve with the shot. He said that in the next days he will be fine. But every time i stop rubbing him for a few seconds then i start again, he cry's. Do u guys have had this happen to u? what can i do to make him feel better? please help! |

| This happened to my friend's chihuahua. He was the biggest tiny baby ever. Sometimes dogs just get traumatized after things like that. He just moved to a new home, he's small, getting used to the sounds, new people, etc. He should stop after a week, if not I'd take him to a new vet to see if they did something wrong. More than likely it's just him being the little baby that he is! Remember puppies are like little kids!

| Oh the poor little guy!!!!!!! How horrible for him.......and probably just as horrible for you too!! I hate seeing any of my fur kids suffer or be in pain. I have no advice, but just wanted to lend you my moral support if nothing else. (Although I would probably call the vet in the morning if he is still in pain.) THIS IS why I am not wanting to get little Jett his rabies shot!!!!!!

| I would have all shots administed at the vet's office, not the breeders. Yes, there are reputable breeders who administer their own shots with their vet's blessings, but there are disreputable breeders who do this, do it wrong, and do it with vax that are expired (Uni's breeder). If you don't have the record from a vet when the shot was administered, when you take him to the vet for rabies or whatever, they will say the shots are void and they will make you get the shots again! Dangerous! Over vaccinating! esp for these little guys. Also, the injection site may have a big lump develop over the next few days and can take a week or a few months for it to go away.

| In my opinion at 18 oz he should NoT have been vaccinated & dewormed at the same time, that's too much on his tiny body all at once. In the future you should take him to see a vet for these things. |

| I agree, when they're that small one thing at a time is best. They shouldn't have shoved the dewormer down his throat after the shot bothered him so much. Totally not your falt though, he'll be ok in a few days, like someone else said he's probably just a little tramatized more than actually in pain. Maybe try rubbing that area while giving him a treat to re-focus him on something pleasant associated with being touched in that area. I dought it's beacues they did the shot "wrong" that's really difficult as long as they lifted the skin up and gave the shot under the skin (Sub q) My vet wanted to do Alice's second booster and Rabies on the same day and I requested that we come back in 2 weeks for the Rabies. It's ok to do more than one thing at a time when they are adults and for larger dogs but tennie tiny babies require more caution. Also, you don't need the bordetella vaccine (kennel cough) unless he will be going to a groomer or kennel for boarding.

Now that u and that other person said that, It makes a lot of sense. Next time i will definitely go to a vet! Also they said that he is so tiny that they want to give him an extra shot. What do u guys think? Thankfully he is all better now! running and playing & no crying!! | |

| Princess was a good size as a pup but they still never gave her more than one shot at a time and i always had to wait about 3 weeks in between, the only exception was one shot and one nasal together. i just talked to my vet about bordetella (sp) and they said she only needs if going to the groomer, i just have to get it 3 days prior. he's so young i doubt he'll have to go anytime soon so i would just put that one off til needed.

| Fifteen weeks is a bit early to be stopping. Pain can be normal. Please have a licensed veterinarian examine your dog (today) and have them give all other vaccines. Going back to the breeder's for vaccines is not normal or okay. The exam is being skipped this way and the vaccines used may be questionable.
