Most people think once they recover from the initial illness from a shot they are fine. They don't connect the long term illnesses with overvaccinating.

As woogie man stated in his post even the new protocol for boosters every 3 years is a compromise between what the research is proving and what a lot of vets will accept. So to give them every year, in my opinion, is crazy. There I admitted it.

Keep researching this and you'll find what's best for your girl.
Thank you. Your avatar is adorable.

I left Sadie with my parents for two hours today, and when I came home they told me she is not herself. She did not follow them around the house, and just laid on her pillow.

I talked to my vet this AM, and we felt all was OK. This has changed, and I see the vet in one hour. I love my vet, and live in a very small town, so wish
me luck with my little girl.

I will post on the outcome.
