Is my puppy allergic to the shots she received? General Dog Discussions
My 12 week old chihuahua puppy received her second round of puppy shots today. 2hrs later, after playing with other dogs at my home, her nose, ears, and feet turned a bright red color and her face became very swollen within seconds. Her ears also began to swell and get bubbly like they were blistering. Her feet also became swollen. This swelling eventually went down after time and a 1/4 dose of children's benadryl. However, 1-2hrs after the swelling went away, she played with the other dogs again and her face became swollen again within seconds of her stopping to calm down after playing.The swelling has gone down again and has never caused her to have issues breathing.I am just wondering if I should keep her from playing or running for a few days and how long I should expect this swelling to occur?Also, is there anything I can do to keep the swelling from occurring? It's very scary even though she doesn't seem to be in pain.I'd just like to point out the first thing I did within a few minutes of the swelling occurring was talk to my vet to make sure it wasn't a life threatening situation. I am just looking for advice from people who may have experienced a problem like this before. Thanks!
