They have a few different doctors there.

I just called and cancelled my appt for Augie for monday. They didn't mention it to me when I set up the appointment.

They said it's an optional vaccine, but if the dog needs surgery/anesethia (sp?) Lepto is required.

I don't know. I think I'm going to take them to a different vet, especially for the spay/neuter. But they have 1 doctor there that is great. Too bad he doesn't get to set the rules.
We have the same situation.
We go to a doctor who doesn't own the facility and she doesn't make the rules. However, she has some authority to break them. So, have you talked directly to the Dr. you like about not doing lepto because it has caused a reaction? No good vet, in my opinion, is going to try to force a noncore vaccine on a dog that has already had a reaction. That is a lawsuit waiting to happen. If you have talked to the doctor you like though and they are insisting on it, then I would go somewhere else.
