Ridecamp: [RC] shot reactions

Joan - I NEVER ever  give TWO shots at the same time. I use the single
 vac type - getting more difficult to get.. those multi shots really
mess with the immune system.. Of course the drug  companies and the
vets (most) will say otherwise..
but I have had far too many 'reaction issues' years ago when I gave
the mega shots

I give one vac then wait 2 weeks then another then 2 weeks etc..
I only give rabies, tetanus, EWE, WNV. I do backup the insult on the
immune system with 'alternative' support herbs and homeopathic. But
thats just me... so far after 8 years of this protocol no issues

Sound like he got strangles
 Hope he does OK
