My dogs are not outdoors too much, and I have a 5 year old yorkie that I have not gave booster rabie vaccinations for and he is fine. Isn't it only when you come into contact with squirels, rats, etc that you get the disease? Correct me if I'm wrong. I just heard of so many side effects with rabies that I would rather not give it unless he's an outdoor dog.
concretegurl: I wonder what the difference between one year booster and three year booster is. Is it more potent than the one year?
Mardelin: Don't know for sure, but I read somewhere that only that amount will trigger the immune system, despite the weight of the dog. Same thing with the vaccines administered to a 80 lb person and a 200 lb person. This was someone's comment, so I'm wondering myself if it is true.
