[QUOTE=YorkieRiniWow! I was always worried about the adverse reaction my babies will have to the vaccine. Now I'm wondering if I am making teh right decision. I always figured if one of my Yorkies got tangled with a rabid animal they wouldn't survive anyway..but what if they did?...hmm..maybe I'll start a poll..about adverse reactions to rabies Vacc..[/QUOTE]
I am in no way trying to sway your decision, but here is a scary and VERY possible situation that happened to a friend of mine and her Jack Russell. There was an injured bat in their yard...their dog found it and was bitten. Now, the bat was killed and was NOT infected, but what if it had been. Even if you check your yard before you take out your pooch, what are the chances you won't look it over well enough to find a tiny bat? Pretty good, I would think. Their dog was fine, had a nasty bite, but that was it. Anyway, like I said, not trying to convince you otherwise, you have to do what's best for you, but you have to admit, that is a pretty scary thought.
