I've made this decision for my baby girl based on the fact that for decades upon decades professionals in that field have concurrently agreed upon vaccinations. Now to have a handful of homeopathic doctors try to shoot the other doctors work and for ME personally to take their advice would be absurd. I would rather go with what is logical to me and that is: WHAT HAS BEEN STUDIED AND HAS WORKED FOR YEARS WILL WORK FOR ME IF IT KEEPS HER SAFE. |
I am sure that you have made the right decisions for Coco and she will be healthy her whole life and not have any negative health issues as a result of her vaccines. I respect your choices.
Just to correct you on one thing you said however,..... it is not a "handful of homeopathic vets" who are bringing this to light...there was actually a decision made recently by
ALL of the veterinary schools in this country to change the vaccination schedule protocol from the previously accepted annual schedule to every three years as a sort of compromise, but most agree that every dog should be treated on an individual basis based on his/her needs, his/her immunity levels after testing, etc, because there is no "one size fits all" when it comes to vaccines.
Not all vets have switched and some still stay on the annual schedule and it is simply not necessary. Over vacciantion will have consequences for future generations of dogs even if not for yours.
