I would not have a problem with a tech giving my pups their DHPP. My vet does them because that is just her policy, but it really is not a big thing for the techs to do them. I d however, find it out of line to do it in the waiting room.

My guess is that your vet, since they are separating vaccines, opted to do it this way to avoid having you pay another exam fee. (just a guess) My vet splits the shots three weeks apart ... and still sees the pups in her exam room the second time but does not charge an exam fee.

But...if you are uncomfortable, then look for another vet! It is very important to follow our gut feelings.

Someone mentioned the yearly vaccines...that is another issue...ask any vet you use whether they follow the AAHA guidelines for vaccines. Yearly vaccines are not recommended.
