Abstract
A 4-month-old German shepherd puppy developed hindquarter weakness after va ccination with a multivalent vaccine. This is suggestive of post-vaccinal p olyradiculoneuritis. To date, only 1 similar case has been reported, which may be due to the under-reporting of suspected adverse drug reactions.
