We were given a rabies tag for my dog at checkout. When we told them that she just had that shot 3 months ago they took the tag back and said the front desk messed up and that they didn’t give her the rabies vaxx. They always give shots without the owner present. I’m wondering how the front desk could pass out tags without vaccination since the tag numbers are recorded on the vaxx certificate. My question: do you think they may have given my dog the vaxx mistakenly? The shot was also on the bill. I’m in SC.

Pull back to make sure you're not getting any blood not air.

Yes check for blood. But also check for air, that means you went through the skin.

@jennerjudice9591 if the needle is under the skin it's harder to aspirate. If the needle went through the skin, when you aspirate it pulls back super easy.

I assume then it is legal in your state for a CVT to give a Rabies vaccine?

If blood appears in the syringe upon drawback, then abort injection to avoid injecting vaccine directly into a blood vessel. I'm a nurse for humans and think it's the same reason for animals. Some other commenters have said check for air upon drawback in case the needle's lumen goes "through the skin." But, of course, the needle's lumen needs to go through the skin in order to deposit the vaccine into the subcutaneous tissue (the fatty tissue between the skin and the muscle). I think the commenter meant to describe that air will enter the syringe upon drawback if the needle's lumen was advanced through another location of the skin, ending up outside of the body. I have found it more difficult giving subcutaneous injections in animals than humans because the animal's fur obscures vision of the skin.
