I guess I'm guilty of over vaccinating, I guess. I get mine boosters every year including Lymes. They also get dewormed at least twice a year.
My dogs are very active and in contact with wildlife and other domestic animals on a regular basis.
My mom's bichon got kennel cough after a dental cleaning once a it almost killed him. He was given the kennel cough vaccine previously too. The vet required him to stay overnight after the cleaning. Since then if my pets need surgery or cleaning they stay with me til right before and then come home with me within hrs of the procedure. My current vet is great. Will put the into the dog/cats own carrier if you leave it so your animal can recover in something familiar to them. |
