"Rabies vaccinations should be delayed until at least six months of age, if possible."
When I took Rizzo in for his neuter my vet wanted to re-vaccinate him for rabies because he recieved the 3yr one when he was about 16 weeks old. I told her no, because I'm leaving this country next September and most likely he'll need another rabies vaccination for entry into whichever country I'm going next. She kept trying to push, saying that she doesn't think it was effective and he really needs to have it re-done, just in case he bites someone. I told her he won't bite anyone, nor is he exposed to rabies infected creatures around the house and that I won't be re-vaccinating him until I need to in order to leave.
All in all, it is your decision not your vets what happens to your pet. |
