I believe pup had rabies, lepto, and 4 way. : (
She is home and doing much better.. I guess I have my head in the sand. I thought pretty much all vets were giving vaccines seperately these days... What does it take ? No common sense... and Joe P trusts their vets with no questions asked... Poor baby.... Praying they skip the lepto booster and do titers on her from now on...

Too many vets today still give several vaccinations at 1 time without a thought. I've gone to a vet with a litter of puppies and they already have 2 syringes filled per puppy. I explain that there is a notation on the front of our main file and all dogs, DO NOT ADMINISTER MORE THEN ONE VACCINATION PER VISIT OR EVERY FOUR WEEKS. The last time I went I decided to never return when 18 syringes were ready to go for 9 puppies at 8 weeks. This group of 3 vets are early 30's to 50's. They're not old ages, no reason for them not to recall our discussions and wording on the files.

There is no reason for a young puppy to go through that at 15 weeks poor wee one. I hope they don't return to that vet again.

Thanks for sharing the bit on the shots. Again, really glad the dog is OK, but it's a prime example of what does go wrong when you do that. I hope you can successfully share with the pup's family about the shots. We've had vets visit our kennel club meetings and talk about how hard lepto shots are on the system and how you HAVE to give them separate. They tend to be the shot that dogs have the most problems with (and if they have a reaction, they should never have that again), but when you do that molotov cocktail, you never know what the problem is. I had a pup react to rabies. If I had mixed it with his boosters, we could never have isolated the problem.
