He is good now. It took until Wed AM before he got better. It was scary Tuesday he was so sore. I made a vet appt for Wed, but he was so much better that I cancelled it. I take him back in two weeks for his 2nd Lyme shot and they told me to give him benedryl before I come. Thank you for asking.

I wouldn't take him back for his 2nd shot, but that's just me.

My Pup had a weird reaction to the Lyme, or the intranasal Bordatella. We're not sure which one it was, but it caused a condition called Uvitis. Both her eyes swelled, and she was on low dose Prednisone for it. I never Board her, so I will forget about that in the future. My Vet now premedicates her before giving any shots. Next year, we'll do Blood Titers to see if she has immunity, and if so, that shot won't be given. I am happy to hear that your Pup snapped out of it, and is doing fine now.
