The vaccine used is pu on the certificate. If the vet used a vaccine labelled for 1 year use (even if it will technically last 3 years), it has to be given the next year. Then though, you can give the 3 year.

Michigan is a 3 year state. Puppy rabies, then one year booster, then every 3 years.

Ok, thanks. I do remember talking to you about this a while back, but guess I was still under the impression it had to be documented as "good for" every year. I would've gotten the 3 year this year, but the Humane Society was offering it for $10 I believe so I just did it with her spay.
