Your pet will likely be fine as long as Scooby does not have an vaccine allergy issues. Many vets will try to get dogs on a schedule so that all vaccines are done at once (so clients don’t have to come in multiple times). If you have concerns, please discuss these with your doctor who will understand. I hope this is helpful and please feel free to post any additional questions.
