I wouldn't give a vaccine like that to my dog...seems unnecessary and I don't see it making much difference. I'll continue to feed raw and brush Lacy's teeth
I agree that it doesn't make much sense. The way my vet explained it was that it vaccinated against the certain type of bacteria that causes periodontal disease. I don't know much about this stuff but still didn't understand how there would only be one kind of bacteria??
