You know all of this research is well and good. And I too believe our pets are over vaccinated. I do not like to give these shots so often either. In my state by LAW I must give the rabies annually. I do and my vet agrees only give other vacinations every three years. and I do not give any vaccinations after the age of about 8 years except rabies.
I think many of you who are AGAINST vaccines especially rabies forget one thing. There are laws which are written to protect the human population! If we do not abide by these laws (in every state) then our pet is at risk of being KILLED not from be bitten by a rabid animal but from the government officials who are sworned to protect humanity! Until we get the laws changed we must continue to protect our pets from not only any possible exposure to a wild rabid animal but also from the government which insists humanity be protected from this terribly fatal disease. My Yorkies have almost zero chance of being bitten by a rabid animal yet I feel I must continue to protect them from humanity! Remember this is JMHO.
