October 8, 2009South Athens Animal Clinic
Athens, GA
You blink and before you know it a year has passed and it's time for the shots again. Tessa was vetted up today: DHPP, corona, kennel cough, rabies, heartworm-lyme-ehrlichiosis test, fecal check, and thorough physical exam. Because she had a reaction to one or several of the vaccines last year she was pre-treated with benadryl and kept at the clinic for observation. She did just fine - not even the benadryl slowed her down. We did skip the leptospirosis shot entirely because it is known to cause reactions.
When I picked her up, one of the vet techs had her 12-year old German Shorthaired Pointer at the clinic for shots as well. She brought Megan out and we took both dogs for a brief potty break. Megan is very lively - if it wasn't for her grey face you would never think she is a senior! So I guess it's true what they say - these dogs don't slow down until two years after they die.
