This information is not new.....The research has been out there for about 3 decades, it's just that we, the pet owner, didn't know it. When a vet knows that vaccines are not harmless and still continues to administer them in a reckless way, in my eyes that is a vet committing malpractice and is an unethical vet.......

The research is in, no vet should ever use combo vaccines, ever.....It is also proven that boosters are not needed....But it's done anyway...Why would he/she do this???

I see breeders also doing this same thing. A breeder will research genetics, food, blood lines, health conditions, whelping, even grooming products, but when it comes to one of the most important parts of the animals long term health very little research is done in the overvaccine issue. I still see breeders giving vaccines to soon, too often and giving unnecessary ones......What a shame .....IMO, a lot of people are making these decsions out of fear, fear of diseases that's lurking "out there".....Fear is the motivator, and it works very well for the vet......Create fear and they will come......

yeah another friend has had dogs for years - she does the puppy shots and one rabies shot and she said her dogs are all very healthy live for 14 years plus so she does not buy into all this after seeing this for years
