It was probably the 6 or 7 “combo” shot which includes Lepto.
*If* I vaccinate, I insist upon separate vax spaced out over time.
I never ‘shotgun’ vaccinate with the combos.
Someone once asked why our dogs seemed to live longer ‘back in the day’.
We have better food, better vet care, better diagnostics yet they still die/get sick more often than they really should.
The only thing that’s changed is the vaccine push, which, coincidentally, is extremely profitable for vets.
Before I bought into the annual vax protocol, my dogs only went to the vet to be neutered and occasional required shots.
Nobody ever ‘got sick’.
Since the over vaccination craze, I feel like I’m dragging somebody in every month for some weird, obscure thing.
My vet doesn’t like it but I’ve let years go by before I come in for their ‘annuals’.
The rabies I *have* to do every three years due to state law but the rest is pointless, IMO.
The Lyme vax is now under scrutiny for causing Lyme symptoms even though it doesn’t cause the actual disease.
Same difference, if you ask me.
What about heartworm? Do you do that?
Yea shots routine is getting changed and some of it dropped. I think the Bordetella/Kennel Cough is the most likely culprit and she really doesn't need it.
She's holding her food now. I started her back slow last night and she's ate what she normally does I just spread it out. She threw up once this morning but very little in it and most I suspect is now processing through her normally. No noticeable blood in stool either. VET last year told me that part in a dog wasn't really an emergency or danger the way it is in a human. When they have a reaction their gut usually gets tore up and they'll bleed a little. I'm going to look up state Rabies vaccination law too. Really the only thing I worry about is Coons and unfortunately we have too many.
She's got her I'm the boss strut back in her walk now LOL.
