Like you say, they SHOULD be more concerned with overdosing the baby than accepting the valid shot record! Actually, the only vaccination they would be "responsible" for justifying or "standing behind", would be the rabies shot, which in most States is still given only by vets. If you tell your vet you trust your breeder and accept her word that the vaccines were given correctly and appropriately, what in the world are they going to do? Establish working relationships with the people that are taking care of your pup.....there SHOULD be a trusting relationship going both ways between you and your breeder, vet, groomer, etc! |
It makes me wonder if these vets are just out to make a buck and use this as an excuse to re-vaccinate and charge the client more. I've had vets refuse to write me a prescription for HW pills, after administering a HW test at their office, simply because they wanted me to ONLY be able to buy HW pills from them and nowhere else. Needless to say, that is the last time I took my dog into that vet.
