Sorry, I don't understand.

I thought I had read, when I was researching and deciding whether or not to give it to my guys, some sources say that it must be given every 6 - 8 months or it is not necessarily effective.

I would think it would be like other vaccines where there is no precise length of time that it is effective.

Over-vaccinating is relative. Effective or not, does anyone really know the impact of vaccines? If the vaccine isn't necessary, then it is over-vaccinating. Our last dog had the rabies vacc annually per the law. It didn't hurt her that we know of, but she was being over-vaccinated.
