KNOCK on wood I have not had a positive stool in over 20 yrs...
As to vaccines...most vets today are not accepting a breeder giving vaccines..so they disregard breeders record and start shots all over again...so many pups are being over vaccinated because of this factor.I advise the breeder giving the 8 week and then the vet giving the 12 shot and a health check...if you are selling at the 12 wk advised aged. I keep mine until all shots, including rabies is given...JMO |
That is irresponsible on the part of the owner and the vet.. I would never allow my vet to disregard the breeders vaccination record. There again, it boils down to buying from someone you trust. Also having the little peel off lables pretty much proves that you did indeed have the vaccine.
I think a bigger problem comes from vaccinting to early and having the vaccine not even count because the natural immunity canceled it.
I do not vaccinate until 9 weeks therefore vaccinations are not completed until 15 weeks.
