We also have a tick problem here so I make sure to get Callie the Lyme vaccine as well. I know lots of people worry about over vaccination but I also worry about my dog not being vaccinated against something she could be and ends up catching it and having to go through being sick and through treatment for it when for all we know it could hurt, the sickness and the treatment when they made a vaccine for it.
I usually do Bordetella because i take Hailey to the groomer once every 2 months for hair trimming and most groomers require the vaccine to be up to date. As for the Lepto and Lyme vaccine, I will have to ask my vet and see if it's something that is in my area.
