That just doesn't make sense to me, thats like saying to wait to give human babies vaccines until they are done nursing, sometimes that can be a few years. I guess it leaves me wondering if its just a ploy to make some more money. Does anyone have anymore information they can direct me to on these findings? I find it very interesting
Thats the same thing I was wondering
Now I feel bad/stupid for not getting the booster
Then again the vet assistant couldn't give me
a reason why. All she said was he needs to
get a booster now and then be vaccinated up to
20 weeks of age, and that to me seemed like a lot
when he only weighs 2.1lbs
