Is it normal for small dogs to have reactions to rabie and distemper shots?

Any size dog can have a reaction to vaccines. It is rare to see it with a Rabies vaccine as that is a killed vaccine. With the DHLP/Parvo vaccine sometimes, but rarely, the dog will react to the Lepto part of this combination vaccine, Distemper, Hepatitis, Lepto, Parainfluenza & Parvo. If your pet had a true reaction such as swelling up within 5-10 minutes of receiving the vaccination, then just leave out the lepto part of the vaccine the next time your pet is due for the next vaccination. Just ask your Vet about this or if you give your own vaccinations, get a vaccine without the lepto in it.
