Hi; I was reading the information on your website about reactions from vaccinations. I took my 12 1/2 year old Border Collie to the vet yesterday and got her yearly shots. She had the Bordetella and Distemper/Hepatitis,parainf/parvo shots. That was at 10:55 am. At 5:30pm...she had the first of 3 seizures..all in the span of 30 minutes. She has never had a seizure before and I gave her 2 benadryl..to calm her.. She didn't have any more seizures. the rest of the night..and I took her to have a blood panel this morning. We are waiting for the results..probably by Monday. I think it was a reaction to the shots..what do you think? Sincerely, Jill

It's me again. The one with the husky/lab mix pups.They just turned 18 mo on Sat.We lost our male this past Mon. He hadn't had any seizures since April 23.Sun. he was having cluster seizures;about every 2-3 hrs. He was howling, barking, and whining after coming out of each one.That is the worst thing my family has ever gone through. My female will NEVER get another booster shot. When I took our male to the vet he said-ironically-this is the age when "epilepsy" shows its ugly head. Duh, this is when people give their dogs their boosters, because you tell us to. I've let everyone I know not to give boosters to their dogs.There is no sense that this wonderful young dog should have died or had to go through this. I truly feel for everyone who has lost a dog so soon after booster vaccinations. It's time to get mad and take action!
