Hello, I have a Morkie which is a mix between a Maltese and a Yorkshire terrier. He is 3month old a today he received his canine 5-in-1 vaccination (DA2HPPv) and round/hookworm dewormer. After 5 hours I noticed he has his eyelid red and a little inflamed. I don't know if it is a side effects of the vaccines or he has an allergy reaction. Please help.

This could very well be the start of a vaccine reaction. I would consider taking him in to the vet now to make sure his vitals are ok and to go ahead and get him treated. It's best to be safe than sorry when you have inflammation in the face the same day vaccines were given. I hope Louie turns out ok and this doesn't progress any more than this localized reaciton area. Treatment is the next best step. Best wishes and take care.
