I think lugging the newborns & Momma into a vet & subjecting them to drafts, stress, & god knows what diseases might be lingering at the vet office is a far bigger concern. My vet outrite asked that I not bring my puppy back for her next exam until at least 6 weeks old, for this exact reason. |
It's all a matter of what you prefer, I suppose. There are some breeders that I have tons of respect for that get the oxy shot everytime, there are some who don't. I do think there is a time for it, but not just as a routine practice. Who knows, something may surface to change my mind one day, but that is where I stand for now. Again, just my opinion.
