Adverse reactn to vaccination?

[Boxers]

Has anyone's dog had a reactn to a vaccination?

I took my GSD for his annual check up and vaccination on Tuesday evening. On wednesday morning he was a little subdued and his legs were a bit stiff. This started to get better from thursday morning and today he is back to normal, but on wednesday I was quite worried about him.

Anyone else experienced this?

Personally no, tho there has been an awful lot about it recently (or more prob as I have been looking into it)..have a very similar breed and my rescued boy massively stresses and am reluctant to innoc because of that due to a possible increased chance of adverse reaction as he would be adrenalized simply by being in new room with new people, let alone the handling/injecting part.

I hope your GSD is better and all back to normal and feeling ok. have a look at Andi Browns The Whole Pet Diet-she has a fb page so you can likely read the thoughts and reasoning she gives..mainly to do with heavy metals & the carriers it is thought its such a rock/hard place situation to be in. She does offer a doggy detox diet plan which is excellent if you are wanting to go that way about getting any toxins out of his system..that is in the book tho I am sure you could find it online with a little persistant googling.

We have vaxed literaly hundreds of dogs/pups and I have yet to see what I would cal a bad reaction other than the more common and expected, loose faeces, lethargy, off food, soreness around inj site and very, normaly passed in a day or 2 and more uncomonly/rarely vomiting. The vaccine does tax the immune system so you can expect some resistance from the body
Worming and fleas treatments can also have the same effect on some dogs.
I think some people mistake the common side effects/reactions as severe/bad reactions and I think it's cos you where not expecting or maybe not experienced alot of vaxes before, not that I am saying thats the case in this case. Hope he feels better now.
