I was on my Ipad last night so I couldn't access my files. Here is what the experts say about this.......
"It is the response of the vaccinated animal's immune system that determines the effectiveness of the vaccine. If a dog is sick, weak, or malnourished, his body may be unable to mount the proper defense. If his immune system is depressed due to previous disease,
surgery, poor genes, old age or drug therapy, vaccinations are likely to be ineffective. Every vaccine package lists warnings against vaccinating any animal whose immune system may be compromised, and most veterinarians will agree that a sick dog should not be vaccinated."
How long after vaccination does an animal develop immunity that will prevent severe disease when the core vaccines are used?
A. This is dependent on the animal, the vaccine, and the disease.
The fastest immunity is provided by
canine distemper virus (CDV) vaccines -- MLV and recombinant canarypox virus vectored. The immune response starts within
mins - hrs and provides protection within a day without interference from MDA.
• immunity to
canine parvovirus (CPV-2) develops
after 3-5 days when an effective MLV vaccine is used.
•
Canine adenovirus-2/hepatitis (CAV-2) MLV given parenterally provides immunity against CAV-1 in
5 to 7 days.
