The fluid sac went from where the vaccination was given all the way around under his front leg to his chest! Also the area where the rabies was given his coat turned white and the color has never returned to that area.. He is due this month for his second rabies vaccination and I do NOT think I can do it..

Melanie~ How awful. I think you are absolutely right not to. You can see about getting a waiver from your vet but ypu probably will never need it since there is very little risk of getting "caught" with a house dog like a little yokrie and you could always get the waiver then if you received a citation.
I was told by one vet that if my dog bit someone and he his rsbies vaccine wasn't up to date that they could euthanize him and that is a complete and disgraceful lie!!! A lot of vets use those types of scare tactics however and the average person doesn't know any better.
They can quarantine your dog for a period of time (to your home) and require you to vaccinate unless you have a written waiver from your vet and that is it. Thay cannot kill your dog!!
