Texas now allows for the 3 yr.vaccine however my county still requires it yearly.

When I got my pup he had been given a booster by breeder and also a rabies by vet. Both made large lumps.

I had 3 ferrets vaccinated a few years ago, (I never did everyone at once) one only got half the vaccine because they let the vet tech do it and she did it under the skin but went all the way through and shot half of it across the ferret onto the back of my hand. Vet told her to just give the rest of what was left.

He went into Anaphylaxis, started throwing up blood and passing stark red blood as stool, they gave him injections to counteract it (benadryl and something else) gave him fluid under the skin and had to put him in an oxygen tank for 24hrs.... its a very scary thing to go through with a 4lb animal that was healthy as a horse. He became exempt because of medical history. To be honest he would have never gotten another one exempt or not. He was the largest heaviest ferret in the buisness of 6 and the second youngest and yet he died first at only 3yrs old.

Oh and the reason i posted
my vet refused to report it even though it was the only vaccine he got that day.
