Canine Flu Shots: Are They Necessary? | Truth4Dogs
A person would think that the vet would be the "go to" person for advise regarding vaccines but they generally have very limited knowledge in this field. Dr. Schultz says most vets know what a vaccine is for but are lacking in the proper way to administer them lacking as to what to look for concerning adverse reactions. For example, vaccines are only to be administered to *healthy* animals. This stipulation is seldom considered when handing out vaccines to our pets.
This is a quote from Dr.Schultz...
Canine influenza virus jumped from horses to dogs in 2004, but Dr. Schultz said there was never any risk that influenza would become the next canine parvovirus epidemic. “Parvo is extremely environmentally stable, it’s impossible to get rid of, it lives in the soil for at least a year or more, and remains infectious. Canine influenza is dead about the moment it comes out of the dog,” so it seems to be most prevalent at Greyhound
tracks, in shelters, and in some canine day cares or kennels.
