I may have mis-spoke about the AVMA, but in the April 2008 issue of Dogworld, there is an article about overvaccination. There was a report in 2006 by the American Animal Hospital Association Canine Vaccine Task Force that has recommendations very different from what has been considered "standard" practice.

If you go to Vaccination Schedule Recommendations For Dogs you can find the article by Dr. Jean Dodds, DVM as well (sorry, got her name wrong, too)!!!!!!

And yes, it is a shame that the vet clinic won't discuss this unless you bring it up - but at least they will then.
