Groomers and such ALL should be aware annual vaccines are way way way too much. I suggest you research and bring this printout to discuss with your vet or find a vet who DOES follow AAHA protocol. Good luck! It's all a learning process. |
EXACTLY. These "new" guidelines have now been around for a *very* long time. They are not new, not at all.
Any vet still following decades-old guidelines is not a vet I'd personally trust or go to. There is no good reason to overvaccinate animals and in fact can be devastating to their health.
I groom all 4 of mine myself, so I don't deal w/ any groomers. If a groomer required overvaccination of my pets, I wouldn't be going there personally. We all have to be advocates for these little kiddos who rely on us to do the best by them.
