Our dog had her immunizations and seems to be running a fever. . . .?

Often dogs will be a bit 'off' after a vaccine. Whether its the vaccine itself, or just the stress of going to the vet clinic, or something else, it isn't uncommon.

I would avoid giving her anything unless things start to look serious (at which point I'd consult a vet), as what you are looking for, is an immune reaction, anything that will reduce inflammation, is likely to be immunomodulatory (and interfere with the action of the vaccine).

If she's still feeling off tomorrow, you might want to call your vet and chat about it.

I wouldn't give her anything. The warm to the touch feeling is most likely just an immune response to the vaccines. However almost every doctor I've worked with has said at one time or another that a warm feeling or warm nose is a poor indicator of body temperature. Dogs normal temp is 100.5 to 102, so they are a little warmer than we are. If anything she may be running a low grade fever just from the response to the vaccine but an accurate temp can only be obtained with a rectal thermometer. She will probably be tired for the night but if she isn't back to herself in the morning touch base with your vet. Good luck with her!

Sadly in this economy you are going to have trouble finding a place for her. Most people are too concerned about keeping their jobs and being able to feed themselves and their kids to take on the added responsibility of a dog. You'll probably find that most rescues and shelters will also turn you down because they're being slammed with animals that people are dumping because of job loss and foreclosures. You may be able to find a rescue that will work with you on getting her placed into the right home for her if you're willing to work with them. That would mean making sure she's current on all vaccinations, spayed, and on heartworm preventative. Also they'll want you to foster her until a home can be found. The rescue will use its resources to post the dog on their website, make her known to potential adopters, and screen adopters like they would for a dog in their current foster program. Other than that, there isn't a whole lot you can do.

Similar thing happened to my dog and two cats when they got their vaccines. They were all fine after a couple of days. However, if she still feels really warm in a day or two, take her to the vet right away because she could have gotten an infection(which isn't very likely, as someone stated earlier, pets are a little off after vaccinations)

My dog also felt this way the day of her vaccines. Just let her rest and she should be back to herself tomorrow. If not, call the vet where she had her shots. But I wouldn't worry- this is normal.

you should be able to give her a baby aspirin without any problems.
