Like any after affects? Because my dog’s behavior changed ever since I got him his shot and he keeps whining whenever I put him in his cage… he’s never whined like that before..
bUT i dont have to take him to the hospital or anything right??? thanks a lot for your information–both of you
Possible side effects: Soreness at the injection site, bump at the injection site, stiffness in the joints located near the injection site (of course there are always vaccine reactions, but those symptoms include vomiting, fever, swelling, diarrhea, lethargy, etc.).
My best guess is your dog is probably sore in the area the vaccine was given. I would keep a close eye on him… if you are really concerned or he starts with secondary symptoms, you can make a phone call to your vet. No need to worry at this point.
ADD: No need to rush him off to the vet, OK?

He’s most likely sore but one of my dogs once had a severe allergic reaction to his shots. She had broken out in hives all over her face, it was horrible.
Just try to give him some extra loving and attention until he feels better tomorrow. =)

There are tons of adverse reactions to the rabies vaccine, and changes in behavior is just one of them.
