This is NORMAL. Right after an animal gets shots, the can sometimes get sick like people. Because a shot is really just a "smaller" version of a sickness. To put it simply, by putting a small "sickness" into the animal or person with a shot, the body is able to fight it off and it then knows how to battle the sickness if it ever catches it. You dont need to take your puppy to the vet. She will get over this in a day or two. If after two or three days she is still sick then I would call the vet for advice on whether to bring her in. For now, make sure she has a nice place to rest with water and food and dont bother her too much.

take her to the vet to see whats wrong. then if something comes up do whatever it takes to make her feel better. then if theyre is nuttin wrong juss cuddle with her and stuff like that then she will feel somewhat better. but taking her to the vet to be checked up is pretty much where to start.
