What should I do if my puppy has diarrhea after vaccination?

The main condition for the healthy development of a puppy is proper care for him from the first days of life. In addition to a balanced diet and the necessary vitamins, vaccinations made by specialists in a veterinary clinic will help to avoid serious health problems. It is highly undesirable to deal with such a serious matter on your own.

Time is also an important factor here, a timely vaccination can not only affect the health of your pet, but even save his life.

Since the body of the animal is individual, the reaction to vaccination may also differ. If you notice that in the first days (2-3) the puppy’s appetite disappeared or decreased, weakness appeared, activity decreased, do not panic. Veterinarians assure that such a reaction is quite normal.

The alarm should be sounded if the vaccine gave more serious complications. So, with diarrhea, it is recommended to urgently show the puppy to a specialist. Such a reaction of the body indicates a pathology that may indicate serious diseases, including canine distemper. Unfortunately, this disease is very often fatal.

The reason for this development of events is often the presence of this disease in a puppy even before vaccination, in this case, vaccination simply provokes the development of the disease. That is why you urgently need to contact a veterinary clinic and start treating your pet as soon as possible.

It is worth noting that after all, diarrhea after vaccination is not always scary, sometimes it is a common coincidence. Improper nutrition or worms can have the same effect. In this case, treatment is also needed, but there is no threat to the life of the puppy.
