Every dog ​​needs to be vaccinated against rabies. For experienced people, they have a good understanding of the timing and precautions for vaccination. However, for novices, there are still many things that they don’t understand. Let’s talk about what to pay attention to when vaccinating dogs.

1. Precautions before getting rabies vaccine

1. The dog’s body can withstand the rabies vaccine when it is three months old. When young dogs are two months old and have no physical abnormalities, they can start to receive vaccinations against infectious diseases. A total of three shots are given, with an interval of 21 days between each shot. After the third shot, the rabies vaccine is given one week apart. Adult dogs need to be vaccinated against infectious diseases and rabies every year, one week apart.

2. Before vaccinating a dog with rabies vaccine, it is necessary to ensure that the dog is in a completely healthy state. If the dog has diarrhea, vomiting, loss of appetite, listlessness, runny nose, sneezing, fever, etc., the vaccine cannot be administered. You need to wait until the dog returns to a healthy state before injecting rabies vaccine.

3. Dogs should not take a bath 5-7 days before vaccination, and keep warm to avoid diseases caused by reduced resistance. If the dog has been bathed, it needs to be observed for seven days before vaccination.

2. Precautions after receiving the rabies vaccine

1. Since some dogs have allergic reactions to the rabies vaccine, after the dog is vaccinated against rabies, the owner needs to observe the dog for 20 minutes before leaving the hospital.

2. The dog’s resistance will be reduced after being vaccinated. Therefore, the dog cannot be bathed for 7 days before and after the rabies vaccine. Otherwise, the dog’s resistance may be reduced, thereby affecting the immune effect.

3. When the vaccine is not fully vaccinated, do not take the dog out to play, especially in contact with other animals with abnormal behavior, because the body's antibody level is not high at this time and cannot resist the invasion of external viruses.
