-MO-We always give our Yorkies only 1/2 of the dose of each shot as was recommended by our vet. I do not like giving it to them but know they must have it for THEIR protection. I do not take my Yorkies out much (without their stroller
) as their are so many bigger dogs in my area, some off leash too
but anytime we (humans
) walk outside we are bringing those germs into the house and exposing our Yorkies to them. I agree in splitting up the shots between visits. We also do not give the lepto vaccine, it can be very dangerous from what I have read but lepto is not a concern in our area. If it was, I am not sure what I would do. I have also read about shots lasting more than their 1 year and we are going to revaccinate ony every 3 years but I do agree that they should have all their shots as puppies, for their protection...I guess I should also add that I groom them myselves
