Adverse Reaction to Rabies Vaccination ?

I recently adopted a small dog from the shelter. She had all of her vaccinations except the rabies vaccination. She was spayed by the shelter affiliated vet, and sent home the same day. I took her to my vet the next day as she had a bad cough. After antibiotics and cough meds she was fine. Happy, loving little baby that is bringing me so much joy. The vet suggested holding off on the rabies vaccine until she was well Last evening I took her in and she was given the rabies vaccination and Advantage for dogs.Today I have noticed a slight gait to her walk. She does not seem to have the correct balance. I am worried after reading some of the rarer adverse reactions. She will see the vet Monday if this continues. If this becomes worse before Monday she will see and emergency vet. My question is, Has your dog ever had a bad reaction to a rabies vaccine? Her estimated age is two years old, Yorkie mix. Thank you in advance for your answers.

Muscle soreness near the injection site is very common, and could account for a gait abnormality, particularly in a small dog. One of mine had a slight limp after his last rabies vaccination for a couple of days. Hopefully that's all that is going on with your dog.

I had a dog that reacted to shots. Her reaction was more lethargy and being a little "out of it". They would give her a "pre" shot before her vaccinations and only give her one at a time. Your dog could also be reacting to the Advantage. Some dogs do.
