Dougal is a beautifully healthy puppy. He's currently 3 and a half kg with plenty of skin to grow into :lol: My God did he cry though when he got microchipped!! :lol:
Our vets were VERY surprised though that he'd already had his first 7 in 1. As I said before with the last puppies the vets were doing a three stage vaccination. A small shot around 6-8 weeks, the 7 in one at 12 weeks and a final shot two weeks after that.
They thought Dougal was extremely young to have had his 7 in 1 (at 9 weeks of age).
Anyway he said it's OK to bring Dougal out and about from now on. Now, I didn't like to question a vets professional opinion, but is this the norm? I rememer having to wait a couple of weeks after Aggie's last vaccination and most books say 12 weeks, but then he was that bit earlier getting his vaccinations.
Vaccination was taken in his stride and he's a bundle of energy this morning. He's also the first pup ever that hasn't had diarrhea constantly for the first week. Firm poos!!!! :w**h**:
