How to vaccinate your dog or cat at home.
Watch this video to learn how to give your dog or cat vaccinations. Keep a record of any vaccinations that you give to your pet, include date given, vaccine type (remove the label from the vaccine bottle if possible and keep this with your pet's records) and injection site. It is not recommend giving any dog with a previous reaction to vaccines (anaphylactic shock) vaccines at home.
Injection-site sarcomas are devastating tumors in cats (rare in dogs and ferrets), which occur at sites of a previous injection or vaccination. Vaccines were first suspected as an underlying cause of these sarcomas, but other types of injections also appear to cause the tumors. Although the back of the neck is still currently the most common injection site used for vaccinations (even by veterinarians!!), it has been recommended to inject vaccinations in the subcutaneous areas of the leg. Amputation of the affected leg will greatly increase survival rate and time, should an injection-site sarcoma develop. Learn more about your pet's health and care at http://www.Pets-life.com/
Please keep in mind that some states require rabies vaccinations to be administered by a licensed veterinarian.
