WA state does not have the same issues as the east coast or south. But, when Dori starts to travel in the motorhome with us, I will load her up with whatever protection is available. |
Why would you "load her up" if she's already had the core vaccines? "Boosters" don't booster anything. You are either immune or you aren't.
Dogs are actually more at risk if they are 100% indoor and never outdoors and never exposed to anything.
But in the case of Dori, I don't see why loading her up would benefit anything (especially if she gets titers that come back very high/protected).
Just curious, since you seem to believe in minimal vaccines yourself.
