[PiePiper]

I live in Connecticut, 2 towns away from Lyme where Lyme Disease was first discovered. I will not let Piper have the Lyme Disease vaccination even though we have a high tick population. My first yorkie had the vaccination and a few weeks later he had Lyme disease. Next year he gets his booster, few weeks later sick with Lyme again. Next year the same thing happened. Finally I smarten up and I wouldn't let him have the boosters any more. He lived till he was 13 and he never got Lyme again. Last summer when Piper was getting her puppy shots I told the vet that I didn't want Piper to get the Lyme vaccination and I was convinced that the vaccine made my other yorkie get the disease. He said that it was possible for the dogs to get the disease from the vaccine. So why give it to them?
