I agree with your breeder. Our current vets (except the homeopathic vets) ten to way over vaccinate our pets leading to vaccinosis and all sorts of maladies and conditions as side effects to too many vaccines.

There is a lot written on the controversy and you can read up on the internet. It is very omportant as a pet owner that you educate yourself on this issue rather than just going by what your vet says, because the vets ae sometimes just following a "protocol" that may not be right for your dog.

You also want to avoid combination vaccines or giving multiple vaccines on the same day. PM me if you want links to read up on this issue.
