Right they never had direct contact with the infected animal. There are 3 puppies that lived as of today. I had hip surgery last week so my hubby is the nurse and doing a bang up job through his anger.
All the puppies/dogs that did have the vangard did not get sick. I had 5 Biewers all of them had Vangard and I had 6 Yorkies one was a special needs when she was born by all rights she should not have lived then and was 1 yr old she passed along with the 9 babies so total that died was 11 and 4 that survived. Our Sebastian who is 18 months and was to be shown just came home tonight but the vet shaved him not sure why but who cares he lived !!
All 3 vets that worked on our fur babies said this Spectra is the cheapest and least effective vaccine on the market. As for the price is not that cheap. Hubby bought to save time and I am keeping my mouth shut on that as he is on a huge guilt trip and our main vet took care of him. Plus we do buy our horse//sheep vaccine well used to buy from TSC and the guy there talked him into switching.. Friggin TSC is not standing behind their product at all !!!
With my surgery and the loss I just am devasted
I wanted to go to other breed forums and post this but I could not sit here long enough.
I am going to put a memory page and warning up with their pictures onto my web site as soon as I feel better. I just will not let this just go away at all
