I too will never be giving vaccines to my pups. I do at times do certain injectables...but not vaccines. My education and background have helped me understand that it is not in my pups' best interest. While vaccine reactions are indeed rare, they can occur and I am not going to have anything like that happen on my watch in my home. Sure, a monkey can stick in a needle in, but can a monkey save my pups life? Not a chance .. even I could not do that. Best left to the professionals imo.
To each his own...as for breeders doing it, it is about bottom line (money) and that concerns me greatly....but, I am not in the market for a puppy so I won't be dealing with it firsthand. |
