Awaiting answers to that I can decide. |
IMO - absolutely NO! That is WAY too many vaccines period (especially in one sitting).
How old is Deucy? If he's just turning one year old, I would arrange to get a DHP booster and then rabies on a different day.
If he's over one year old, it's your call, you could either never vaccinate for DHP again ... (and just do rabies as per law) or follow AAHA protocol of every 3 years. But either way, that long combo shot you listed out is completely unnecessary.
I like Dr. Jean Dodd's protocol and will follow this.
If you haven't yet, read the other 3 pages of this thread for lots of other info.
