So my real question to her would be "what is causing us to doubt the lifetime/7-year immunity to the extent that titers are so avidly recommended" -- ya know?  |
YES! That's it. I think you just pinned down what the issue is. Why are titers so important yet we are supposed to believe these things last a lifetime? That might be one of Ellie's vet's issues with the whole thing too (don't know for sure). There are so many opinions even among people that don't think yearly vaccines are right. I think Dr. Schultz skips the titers on his own dogs and just vaccinates once or twice. Why is Dr. Dodds so adament about titers though? I hope she sees this and comes to answer.
And that is a great thought. Kris is a member here. She might be able to find out for us. I will PM and email her the link to this thread.
