Hi I hope someone can put my mind at rest please because I'm really worrying.
I have a 12 week old puppy, the breeder took him to the vet for his 8 week jab and he was given Nobivac L2. Fast forward 4 weeks and DH and I took him do his 12 week jab. It was a crazy consultation! Pup was wriggling about and going crazy and the vet was talking at about hundred miles an hour.
Vet checks his health record, sees he's had L2 and then starts talking about L4, explaining that the surgery is phasing out L2 and advised that he should have L4, 'but it's up to you of course!'
DH then says to her 'well why wouldn't we have L4, if it offers more protection?' She then said there was a bit of controversy about it a few years ago but she seemed to dismiss it. We are first time pet owners and want our boy to be kept safe, vet said L4 was best option so we went for it.
We get home and start googling and now I'm worried sick. Lots of animals have died or become seriously ill. What have we done?? He's due to go back in 4 weeks for a booster jab, should we take him back for it? Can we swap to a safer vaccine in the future?
Can someone please advise, thank you.
