I'm starting to wonder because I don't step foot in that place without dropping $150. I think they see me coming and start figuring out what all I'll spring for!
This is right. If it's much more than a year between, it is treated as if the dog has never been vaccinated before (because the last vaccine is no longer effective). And newly vaccinated dogs get 2 leptos...
