Lots of small dogs have reactions from it.
I follow Dr. Dodd's protocol as best as I can.
So after the booster at one year old of DHPP and then rabies on a different day, I won't get any more vaccines for the rest of his life except rabies every 3 years as per the law.
He's gotten bordatella 3x in his life for different reasons and I won't ever again. Every time he's gotten some sort of cold, or something from it. And he's gotten kennel cough while supposedly 'protected' from the vaccine. | I never give the lepto shot either. It is to hard on the liver. Do you know if titer tests are acceptable for the rabies shot? You might want to check that out for your area and do the titer test.
I have heard that the kennel cough vaccine is only good for 6 months.
