My current vet has been scaring me into getting annual shots. Now I feel so guilty for doing it.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to find a good vet? Also what questions should I ask them?

Thanks.
We have paid around $80 for distemper and parvo titers combined.
There are no words for the $400 things besides crazy.

By the way, in the case of most companies, most notably Pfizer, the one year and three year rabies are the exact same vaccine with different labels to satisfy different state (and vet) requirements.
