I may not be remembering this 100% but I think this is what they said. Does this sound right? I know Daisy does snack on rabbit poop sometimes and I was afraid she would get sick if she didn't get the shot.

Anyway there is an awesome vet there named Dr. Stroud. She performed a miracle surgery when she saved my friend's Yorkie who was viciously attacked by a rottie. No one thought he had a chance of making it. I trust her to give me good info and I think I will ask her some questions. If I don't get good answers from her I will probably look for a new vet.
others may be able to give you good info on this as i do not do lepto but i believe lepto is from standing water

distemper can be from wild animals like racoons i believe - only know that as vet had this up at his office with a racoon pic lolll

rabbit poop they can get giardia from - did your vet give your dog the giardia vaccine ???????
