That is of huge concern to me, and should be for all dog or cat owners.
In my mind tittering should be as inexpensive as a shot. Yet I pay $242 dollars to titer for Rabies, and the shot is what $30 or so.
That is highway robbery.
There are many threads here on the necessity of vaccines and the timing of same.
This thread is very clear and to those who actually read will undertstand the concepts involved. |
Everyone complains about the costs of medical and veterinary care. It is what it is. The point is that most pet owners will never pay it. Period. As for titers for rabies, most states to my knowledge will not accept it. Can't blame the vets for that one. The laws are there to protect everyone. Rabies is a killer.
Yep, the thread is clear now.

As to your last comment, I did not totally understand the reason/concept at all. I clicked on two links and was informed that distemper is not common...so it alarmed the daylights out of me. Looked fear mongering and anti vaccine to me......Let me find it.
