Contact the company that manufactured the vaccines. There may have been something wrong with the vaccine. Maybe freeze 1pup in case they are willing to necropsy. Sorry to hear about your bad luck. 8 way may have been to hard on them for their age.

When I worked at vets I have seen some vaccine companys compensate when dogs had allergic reaction. Worth a shot.

Wow, that is horrible :( I agree tho, contact the manufacturer and let them know because there was definitely something wrong there. If it had been only one pup, might have been a freak thing, but for all of them to die, it sounds like the vaccine was bad. I know some Fort Dodge vaccines were recalled a few years ago, so it does happen that some batches are problematic.
Do you mind if I ask what brand vaccine this was?

IMHO, I think you loaded up their system too much for their age(the immune systen was too underdeveloped and the numbers induced were over-whelming). i only do 5-way shot(puppy shot) the first two shots, then, 7-way. I've never given an 8-way shot but think it would come at about 16 weeks or older.
When we lost power, I set the shots outside w/ ice pack, inside a foam cooler. That should keep them cool but yet not allow them to freze... ;)
Sorry for your loss... :(

i told by a vet,sometime the pups are born with no immune system.the puppies shot will kill these kinds of pups.he also said even if they didnt get the shot they would die before they are a year old any way.

Anaphylactic shock can occur in dogs with any kind of shots, including boosters and even penicillin. The antidote is epinephrine.

The statistical probability of it happening to a whole litter, however, seems very small. I would suggest it was a bad batch, for which (yes) you should receive fair compensation. However, a necropsy would be in order to establish cause. No vet product company will cough-up money without established proof.

I am sorry for your loss. That is a terrible thing, to have brand new beautiful pups, finally just off the mama, and then to wake up to them dead and gone :cry:

The old country vet says corona is a sham by vets/manufacturers any way, that is basically is a made up disease to sell more vaccines, so I would stay away from those even though it probably wasn't your problem.
