I always interview my new owners vets also, just to re-inforce that I am an RN who is very well aware of temperature ranges for vaccines, and I know how to give injections. I sign my health certs with my professional signature. In 10 years, I have only had one vet not work with the new owner, and new owner did not listen to my advise. He re-vaccinated the puppy, gave the baby Lepto. injection, the baby had an anaphylactic reaction, died on the way home from the vet....and then the owner wanted me to refund her money!

Reconsider vet choice because veterinary professional disagrees with breeder about vaccines? I think if a breeder told me that, I'd reconsider breeder choice. Vaccinations are medical decisions to be made jointly by owner and veterinarian. Breeder can give insight to buyer, but no breeder should insert themselves into the medical advice given to an owner by their veterinarian who is the one who is licensed to practice veterinary medicine. I also have no interest in having my breeder "interview" my vet - that's just weird.
