Can you go to another vet?
No vet should ever tell you that anything you want to do for the safety of your dogs is ridiculous.
Dr. Schultz, professor of immunology at Wisconsin State says that rabies should always be given separately because it causes the most reactions.
Anyway, the only shot that the vet has to give is rabies. They could do that one on the day of the exam and have a tech give DHPP two weeks later without a vet appt. and you'd just pay for the vaccine itself.
