Sentinel sounds ok. I'm just so leary of any drugs going into my baby.  But since she's outside alot & we live in the good 'ol south which is horrible for fleas, she will need something. Oh, decisions... |
I'd call the vet office back, and ask one of the techs to find out from the vet what the incidence and prevalence is for lepto in YOUR area. I mean, what the heck does "very common" mean, when it comes to lepto, ya know? That doesn't mean much to me.
I wouldn't give lepto unless there was very strong proof that the risk of getting the disease FAR outweighed the risk of the vaccine itself.
