Adverse Reactions

Most dogs and cats typically have no side effects from pet vaccines. If your pet is showing any abnormalities, do not panic. Only a small minority of dogs and cats will have these symptoms, and only a small percentage of the reactions are serious. These signs usually subside in 24-48 hours.

If your pet has any of the following signs:

  • Repeated episodes of vomiting and/or diarrhea
  • Lethargic or restless behavior lasting more than 48 hours
  • Swollen face
  • Difficulty breathing
  • Hives (bumps) on the body

Contact a local 24-hour emergency veterinary facility listed on any search engine or publication. Good Neighbor Vet is not responsible for any veterinary fees that result from treating vaccine reactions.

In any case, please inform us of any vaccine reactions and follow-ups. If your pet has a history of adverse reactions to vaccination, please arrive early so we can take the extra time necessary to review your pet's vaccination history.
