There have been certain conditions linked with over vaccination, but diseases like Parvo are deadly and painful. So while it sounds good to say, I'd rather have less than too much, in all probability, it's much more harmful to your pet. It's like saying I'd rather be 100 pounds underweight, than 100 pounds overweight. No you wouldn't, while both conditions are bad, one will kill you much faster than the other. Dr. Jean Dodds' Pet Health Resource Blog | 2013 and 2014 Canine Vaccination Protocol - W. Jean Dodds, DVM. How about heartworm medications are you all against those as well, they aren't holistic.
Most who go the holistic approach dont use heeartworm meds or flea meds They use more natural things although I dont know what you would use for heartworm so maybe they just dont give heartworm which is a big risk
