Friends who just bought a dog know that they need to get vaccinated under the guidance of the pet store owner or doctor, but when it comes to getting vaccinated, there are still many details that need to be paid attention to, as well as many misunderstandings. Let’s learn about the basic common sense of vaccination for dogs!
Vaccine is actually a weakened, reduced viability virus. The viruses used as vaccines are treated with special culture and technology. Their activity is much lower than that of normal viruses and can help dogs develop resistance. After being vaccinated, even if they are infected with normal viruses in the future, their resistance is enough to cope with them.
Precautions:
Generally speaking, vaccination is not dangerous to dogs, but injecting it in a morbid manner is life-threatening.
1. For dogs with poor physical fitness and poor nutrition, it is best to improve their physical fitness first and strengthen their nutrition until they are healthy before getting vaccinated.
2. You cannot get vaccinated when the disease occurs, otherwise the condition may be aggravated.
3. Have contacted the sick dog before the injection and need to be injected after a comprehensive examination.
4. Injecting pregnant female dogs may cause miscarriage and is absolutely forbidden.
5. Female dogs are not suitable for vaccination within half a month after delivery.
6. Dogs with no trauma healing are not suitable for vaccination.
Misconceptions about injecting dogs with vaccinations
Misconceptions -: Dogs rarely go out or do not go out, they will not be infected, and they do not need to be vaccinated. As the number of dogs increases, the exchanges between relatives and friends, and the owner's going out may bring the virus to the dogs at home. Even if they don't go out, they will have to be vaccinated.
Misconception 2: - It will be safe after getting vaccinated. After buying the puppy, hurry up and get immunized. Unimmunized puppies have to gradually adapt to their diet and rest when they arrive in the new environment. If the puppies come from a market with dirty and messy environment, plagues rampant, starving and frozen, their physical fitness will inevitably be very poor. They are often infected with terrible diseases but they have not occurred. Vaccination will backfire. You should be treated for about 10 days and be immunized after testing and confirming your health in the hospital.
Misconception 3: Pregnant dog mothers can get vaccinated, which can bring antibodies to their children. The reaction after injecting the attenuated vaccine is strong and may damage the fetus. The instructions for this type of vaccine clearly state that "pregnant dogs are prohibited" and should be immunized after breastfeeding.
Will there be adverse reactions when dogs get vaccinated?
1. It is normal for dogs to experience increased body temperature, depression, decreased appetite, pain and other problems after injection, and they will generally recover after two hours.
2. If you experience itching throughout the body and swelling on the face, that is, allergies, you should go to the hospital for desensitization immediately.
3. Some dogs also become ill within a few days to more than ten days after vaccination. The reason is:
(1) The vaccinated dog is already ill and is in the incubation period.
(2) After vaccination and before the vaccine comes into effect (it takes about ten days) you are infected with the virus and start to develop.
4. It is strictly forbidden to bathe the dog within 10 days after vaccination to prevent the body's resistance from decreasing.
