Within the first 48 hours, it is very normal for your puppy to feel a little tired, even slightly lethargic. It is not uncommon for there to be some swelling on the site of the injection. Your puppy may not want to eat much and you may hear it sneezing or coughing. These are all normal reactions to the vaccine.

Most reactions occur within 48 hours of your dog being vaccinated, but some take longer. If your dog has a mild reaction, it generally will last a short time, just a few days. However, there is a huge controversy in the veterinary community about other side effects that can develop later in your dog's life.
