I mean, he's only 2 1/2 years old so technically he's been kind of a lot. But as he gets older, I may not do yearly unless something requires us to go. Then again, I don't go to the doctors yearly either, so I dunno.

He obviously went 4x as a pup (12 week, 16 week, rabies). Then at one year for boosters. He went once when he came up limping, of course I took him in. He went twice for kennel cough (well, actually, he didn't even go in-they told me to just pick up antibiotics as to not spread it). Umm... I don't know, probably 2 or 3 other times besides those. So he's kind of been a lot in a span of 2 1/2 years.

I guess the only reason he'd go in yearly is to get his bordatella vaccine. Rabies will be every 3yrs. Everytime I get charged for a "check up" I feel it's kind of a rip off. They feel around his body for all of 60 seconds and say "okay, he's great!" and tack on $55 for it but it does give me peace of mind, I like them to check his patellas and stuff.
