a titer is where your vet will draw blood send it to a lab and check to see if your dog still has enough antibodies to protect itself from what it was vaccinated for in the 1st place,, most of the time one vaccine is enough to cover the dog for life, its about 75 dollars for the test where i live but well worth it in my opion, and my vet will vaccinate for free if the dog needs it, my vet said in the 20 years he has been doing titers he has only seen a handful that need a booster,rabies of course is required every 3 years in the sate i live in, after the 1st year. im sure some people think a vaccine is better but in 6 years my dog hasnt needed any boosters. |
