Mercola isn't reputable, BUT I agree with you that Dr. Schultz has published some good *preliminary* work suggesting that a 7 year schedule for core vaccines may be sufficient. I'm sure that after his work has been replicated by other studies, the vaccination schedules will change. In the meantime, I'll abide by the current recommendations.

About antibody testing, here is a really good link to a page on the American Animal Hospital Association website: https://www.aaha.org/guidelines/cani...y_testing.aspx

According to AAHA, antibody testing is only valid for the following vaccinations:

canine distemper virus (CDV)
canine parvovirus (CPV)
canine adenovirus (CAV)

There are a lot of other good links about vaccination on the left side of the AAHA page that I linked to above.
