Question

My bitch is being bred now and has been for about five days. I just found out today that she needs a rabies vaccination prior to shipping her next week to Michigan. Will the rabies vaccine harm the puppies?

Hello XXXX,

 

It is just fine to give a pregnant dog or cat a rabies vaccine because it is a "killed" virus vaccine. Rabies is the ONLY one that is safe though.

 

Best of luck with the pregnancy : )
