My Vet is supposed to call me tomorrow and this will be another topic of discussion that I will add to my list!! I should have added that he never had a reaction to his puppy shots or his distemper, rabies or bordetella, last year. The ER Vet said that they will just sometimes randomly have a reaction to a shot even though they have had it before.... That doesn't make me feel too comfortable!! | |

Maybe if he got the bordatella separately (no other shots) & he had a benedryl shot beforehand, it would be ok? I would also stay @ the vet for 30 mins afterward. They can also use an anti- inflammatory shot instead of benedryl, but it's more expensive. Please consider getting Riley titered before his next booster shot (should be every 3 years), as reactions to vaccines get worse, not better.

| I don't even bother with it anymore. Jackson got KC twice... once shortly after he had the vaccine and was supposedly "protected" and another time after he had had the vaccine, but it was "expired" apparently ... the place we got it at told me it only lasted 6 months? But still, he had it within the year and he still caught KC. Bordatella doesn't protect against all strains anyways. But yeah Jackson goes to dog parks weekly, pet stores weekly, out and about pretty much everywhere, and hasn't had the vaccine in probably almost 2 years and has never gotten KC since. Not to mention when he did have it, it went away within a week of starting meds. It really wasn't hard to treat, especially if caught early.

| After posting on this thread less than a month ago that we haven't had any reactions... Khloe got her bordatella vaccine today. The vet did it near her armpit and she was wearing her Buddy Belt and a sweater. She was fine during the injection and I was right with her petting her chin to distract her. When the vet set her back down, she cried (more like yelped... it was so scary) for almost 20 seconds. She was holding up her leg and I started stripping her sweater off of her to get her BB off. I figured maybe it was pinching the injection site? She continued to cry and the vet massaged her gently and moved her arm around. She was then put on the ground and she walked around cautiously, but was using her leg. I was really freaked out. The vet said her leg could have been cold, so the vaccine could have hurt. I have never seen her react that way to a vaccine Poor girl. Afterwards, she seemed happy to just be in my arms and even laid down on the counter when we were checking out. This is definitely not like her. We came home and a couple hours later, she vomited twice. If she pukes again, we are off to the emergency vet. I am watching her and cuddling with her in bed... She's tired, but otherwise seems okay. I'm questioning if we will give bordatella again...

She is doing better today. She is back to her crazy self... We cuddled last night in bed (she never cuddles) and she even wanted under the blankets. The vet called today, but I missed it. I will be calling tomorrow to discuss her reaction.

| I would definitely not do them all at the same time... I called my vet the next day and he said that we would do a Bendadryl shot next time. I'm contemplating just doing the nasal next time to avoid it altogether.
