Vaccinations - How to administer the Puppy 5 Way Vaccination, Shot

[missiramey]

I just read the directions on the 7 in one shot I bought for my 2 dogs today and it said to give the shot in the nape or skin behind the front leg soooooo you did it right despite the other comments on here.

Good video. Thanks.

[MusicTewns]

That looked quite fast, aren't you suppose to administer it slowly so it causes less pain?

[danielxism]

what happens if you dont mix both vaccines and just give the puppy the purple fluid? oh and he bleeds some? im worried

[karipocha]

SQ injections are easy BUT the FIRST thing you always do is ASPIRATE [pull back on plunger], that is to make sure if you hit a vein, and if you see blood in your hub you just re-direct the needle aspirate again, and if there's NO BLOOD you give.

[COKE564]

your actually supposed to pull back on the plunger before you inject..im not sure if you did or not but its to make sure you aren't getting any blood.

you sure made it seem simple - my pit had his first vacine today...

poor fella is throwin up everywhere....tut...tut

[BlueMoonMoloss]

@vi3tnoromeo to give the shot is simple, but that doesn't mean that your dog will not react to a vaccine. As with any living thing everyone reacts differently. The sole act of providing the vaccine is a simple one.

Sorry to hear about your pup though, that is never good.

[steelfan77]

I was told by a Vet and other experts to give the shots in their thigh and leg areas and not near the nape....is that correct or can you do it in either place?

[BlueMoonMoloss]

@steelfan77 i am not a vet so I can only show you what I do and have done my whole life as a vet tech and animal lover and pet owner. you of course should make you own judgment on what to do.

[daisy250224]

@steelfan77

It is incorrect. You should not give any injections in the nape area, because there is poor drainage in the inerscapular area, and if a postvaccinal lump develops it is difficult to surgically remove it. Hope this helps.

[ollenbergerstudios]

@daisy250224 on the instructions on my vaccination it says to inject intramuscular or subcutaneously -- meaning behind the neck or in the thigh muscle.. and has instructions on how to do so... you daisy are incorrect - regurgitating the google search engine doesn't make you seem smart.

[daisy250224]

@ollenbergerstudios I actually am smart because this is what I am currently going to school for.

Subcutaneous does not mean behind the neck. IntraScapular is the correct term meaning between the shoulder blades on the neck. You can Google that. What I just stated is coming from my Veterinary Nursing Text Book.

@daisy250224 You win.. your the internet argument winner. I really don't care about your so called "qualifications."

[TheSkaterkid8]

how do you take out all the air?

[katkollmer]

Hay....have you ever had the vaccine ever come back out at the very end of the shot? That happened to me this last time. I called Dr. Foster & Smith where I got the vaccine. The shot before leaked out from the syringe. I am wondering if the syringe was faulty or something. They told me to call the vet to see if I need to give the dog another shot.

JUST GOOGLE; "Abuse of Power Corrine Brown" OR "ALEX SINK 8,000"

[mayakamanny]

i was woundering where did u buy your shot for your dog?

[mayakamanny]

hi i was woundering where u bought the shot from??

[wtmbongs]

@mayakamanny this comment is for anyone asking where they bought the shot from.... vet will send home a needle with you when your dog isnt there at the time of your visit

[dollbabysmom]

I like your video,I dont want to take my dogs to the vet for shots, since thats where people bring their dogs for parvo treatment.my dogs are about 9 years old so I bring them in for treatment for other ailments after their shots ,Thankyou !

[DuYiZhang]

Excellent video, thank you very much.

[StudLife28]

Thanks for uploading the video. I just vaccinated my 11 week Bull Terrier baby girl.

[dukiegoogoo]

thanks very much

[dukiegoogoo]

alright i was trying to do it your way and my pup started yelping alot so the bag my vac. came in showed a pic of one in the back leg so i did it and the bubble came and i rubbed it off. is that okay. is it normal for them to cry and what do you think i should do next time

[BlueMoonMoloss]

@dukiegoogoo no they should not yelp like crazy you might have hit the muscle and went to deep. Its supposed to be a subcutaneous injection meaning just under the skin. I am not familiar with the back leg shots. But sometimes sometimes also you may think the pup is crying alot when they are just protesting being help and are given anything so the pup was likely just over reacting unless you hit the muscle and went too deep. When all else fails ask your vet.
