It was the first jab he had, but with his reaction, I don't think he will be vaccinated against VHD again... I can't be going through this again with him!

Im taking everyone for vacs tonight, Ill check with Otis's records but I really am 99% sure it only happened with the first vhd jab. Eve, from what I remember it looked like a big scab, very dark in colour and about the size of an old 10p piece. He lost the fur instantly but it didnt go bald any further. At the time I didnt put much of anything on it, just kept checking it. I think he had his op within a few weeks as he had his vacs on his first visit to the vet pretty much the day after I bought him. I do remember the vet checking the "scab" again at the same time as his stitches. So I think his jab to his post-op was possibly about a month or so ?

i have just collected him and his brothers from the vets, he was fine with the anastetic thanks god, although his brothers had to be knocked out again because they started tearing at the stitches, as if i was not stretched enough with worry, i have now got to worry that they dont do it again.
but will get that picture on here later.
