Question

My 5 month mini schnauzer had a very severe anaphylasix reaction 90 minutes after a rabies vaccination. She almost died. They are telling she can never be vaccinated again. What kind of life will she have if she has to be confined to my backyard? Are there any tests she can have to see if she could get her booster next year?

Optional Information

Accepted Answer

You can consider using a different brand of rabies vaccine as usually its not the vaccine its the components in it used as preservatives that are the issue. Different companies may have different formulas.
Key would be making sure your pup has excellent manners and never bites anyone if you cannot use a different vaccine.
