Is she too young at 14 weeks to get her rabies shot? Even if she's not too young, I didn't want to do too many vaccines in 1 day -- and prefer to space them out.
Thanks guys!! |
Good for you!!!...I started looking into vaccinations when I had my first yorkie done and he started acting strange...I wasn't going to take the explanation from the vet that, "It's a normal reaction".....
Common sense was telling me something was very wrong with how these shots being handed out like m & m's.....I was angry when I googled "overvaccinations" and started reading.......the vet is not exactly in an unbiased position to be advising us on not doing shots.....they try to make us feel like bad pet owners if we don't get them all done but I'm not buying it anymore....
I agree on waiting on the rabies..... what's the vets rush ? ....
I was trying to find a holistic vet in my area hoping they wouldn't be so quick with the syringe but there are none in my area.....
