That was Weathersford , TX Sukie-
moreover the Galaxy D vaccine was NOT the problem . The shelter operator
had allolwed the ferets to lapse then - she vaccinated all her ferrets who
were overdue with Galaxy D after they had already been exposed to canine
distemper for several weeks in the shelter .
-- IT WAS NOT the fault of the vaccine- it was the administering post exposure!
