He had one at the breeder at 8 weeks, Vet has done 3 one at 16, 20 and now 25 weeks. and saying he needs another....
Why does his weight and teeth play into this and are there adverse effects from too many vaccinations? |
First off, any vet hospital recommending annual vaccines... should be crossed off. I wouldn't be going to a veternarians office who was recommending annual vaccines. Completely unnecessary. Sounds like they are a bit vaccine-happy to begin with. I'm not sure what the baby teeth has to do w/ anything... and he got a vaccine at 25 weeks old??? Never heard of that... he definitely doesn't need another.
