Pretty sure it's bortatella, when I was searching for my perfect breeder/puppy I met 2 other breeders that didn't do bortatella but did deworm and rabies the pups. One breeder said she almost lost a pup from the vaccine and she would never do it again.
Either way he is going for a full check up when I get him. I might wait till he is a year old for rabies , but I'm not a stay at home mommy and he will need to go to daycare. I guess I'll have to take the risk.... What happens if they don't get the flu vaccine... They might just get the flu right? It's kind of like our flu vaccine? I get my flu shots, but even those don't protect you from every strain. Or is it incredibly dangerous??
I know people have different opinions on what's right, I don't like to stir things up per say. I just don't want to kill my puppy from vaccinations lol |
Legally I don't think you can wait until he is a year old to get the rabies vaccine. I personally have never heard of a pup almost dieing from Bordatella but that dosent mean it hasn't happened. I'm just about positive all doggy day care is going to require Bordatella.
