I do think it’s unfair to suggest that vets give the vaccines because they are greedy and this is a huge part of their income. Wouldn’t they suggest titers if this were true? In my opinion, I think vets have a different perspective and see more obvious illness from not getting the vaccines rather than getting them, so they still believe that this is the safest thing to do for the majority of dogs. When there is indeed more proof that over vaccination is harmful and does indeed cause problems, vets will be more open to suggesting alternatives. |
I have to agree with Brit on this one. There is simply no good reason for annual vaccinations. It's a business decision for vets, plain and simple.
