Physical examination before vaccination

Therefore, before vaccination, you must ask a veterinarian to check your dog's body and check whether the body temperature is normal. The physical examination mainly checks for eye secretions, nasal mucus, and oral cavity. Check whether the color of the mucous membrane is abnormal, whether the conjunctiva has proliferated blood vessels, whether there is vomiting, not eating, diarrhea, etc., whether there is a history of infectious diseases, and whether there has been contact with sick dogs.

After vaccination, fever, mental deterioration, loss of appetite, lethargy, etc. may occur as the immune system begins to react. This is a normal reaction. Usually within 1-3 days, you will recover on your own. You don't have to worry too much. You can give it some liquid or semi-liquid food that is easy to digest and keep enough water.

But if it is itchy all over the body and has swelling on its face, it is allergic, and you need to go to the hospital for desensitization injections. Some puppies may have severe reactions such as shock after vaccination, so it is best to stay at the veterinary station or pet hospital for 30 minutes after vaccination to confirm that the puppy has no abnormal reaction before leaving. Within a week after the vaccine injection, the dog's body is producing antibodies and its resistance may decrease. Be sure not to bathe the dog to prevent catching a cold during this period.
