yeah i agree with C on this as some areas have bad lepto issues but it does not cover all strains so i personally would not do it in my dogs but you have to discuss it with your vet and maybe a few vets in area as some say we need it here and some say we do not need it here. I choose not to do it

Is there a website showing areas at high risk for lepto like there is for heartworm?
Not really a map, but there are a couple states listed here in there (MI and NJ being well known).

this is actually the vaccine that Miss Ellie collapsed and went into shock over. Scary stuff. Certainly understand the breeders who say don't give it, but understand the vets that say do. So I think it's an individual decision.
