For those readers who are new to Vaccines, please read Dr. Dodd's Vaccine Shedule and familiarize yourself w/ Core vs. Non-Core vaccines.
As far as Lepto, specifically, the risk of getting the vaccine is rarely worth it, unless the disease is endemic to your area. |
everyone has a difference of opinion..i had never heard not to give lepto until yt..i have used it for years and my opinion is that im comfortable using it...i dont know any vets that dont use it..my dogs have gotten it for years, the dogs i had before that, have always gotten the 7 way..all the dogs that were fostered when i volunteers received it...that is actually where i bought my first round of vaccines..now i order my own. its not a concern in my opinion i am completely happy and confident in how i protect my pups..sorry that its something you worry about
i also had never heard that vaccinating a pup at 6 weeks is a no no...until yt...IMO thats taking a BIG BIG BIG risk..i dont think there is any one that would change my mind on that..i feel like waiting that 6 weeks to vaccinate them is scary..people walk all over the place and can carry diseases on their shoes..so i am relieved when i start vaccinating them at 6 weeks i feel they are safe and protected...
