I'm sorry I didn't see this until just now. This is one of the major reasons why I love this board so much. Chewie had a vet that gave her the major whopping like "all in one" vaccine along with the rabies. I get that dogs and humans are different, however, I have a slight allergy to vaccines- one in particular, and my son had a very MAJOR allergic reaction. Unfortunately he's not the same. So, thanks to this board, last year they were honest and also supportive in telling me that it was dangerous. Ever since any vaccines she's given are separate and I always give her benadryl. It gives me peace of mind. |

My vet stopped giving my now passed girl DAP vaccine when she was 9 years old, talk about vets pushing unneeded vaccines just for the buck.:rolleyes: |

As I stated, at that time I lived in the CITY, no "woods" no "grass", a couple of tress lined the street, that tick could have fallen from a tree onto one of my dogs or onto myself, this was back in the 90's, they didn't even have a Lyme vaccine at that time. Since that experience I educated my self on ticks, and I am grateful there is now a vaccine to help. But like you told Lovetodream88 “YOUR dog, and YOU can do what YOU like for YOUR dog. To think ticks can only be gotten if you go into the woods or grass, I think you better do more research on ticks. |

However, this is just unsafe and untrue information you're putting out there - and that's not beneficial to anyone. Just because your sample size of "many dog owners" hasn't experienced a tick while inside of a building (?!), it does *not* equate to being a fact that it just doesn't happen. For anyone reading this thread - PLEASE be sure that bugs, pollens, microscopic germs - whatever - CAN and DOES get inside your house. In addition, your dog doesn't have to be in "the woods or on grass" to encounter a tick. |

Just so you know I have been to a cemetery every single day for three years where there is grass, a pond etc... NEVER had a tick ever. Just check your dog simple. And I resent you saying because I am different and don't agree with some on here but I see some agreeing with me. And I don't give false information. These are my experiences. To each his own. |

It is absolutely *false information* that ticks "don't come in the house" and it's false saying that finding a tick indoors is "stretching it". You're 100% nonfactual on this one. Outdoor bugs absolutely do not honor barriers or knock on doors for permission to come in. |

to the poster that stated that it was stretching it that they were in the house? the tick on my daughter's stomach that she got after showering before a dance performance would beg to differ with you. :D |

Here is the bottom line: you are more than welcome to believe that bugs don't come indoors. If that's the world you live in, that's just fine. But, we're not going to enable that belief here, end of story. If you're unable to accept that without insulting people, then we'd ask you to find a community that believes in the same bug situation that you do. It's really that simple. If you can't be respectful, then please step away from here and come back when able. Thank you. |

We're asking you to stop that, as well as ceasing to throw out sarcastic remarks. This is now the 2nd time we've respectfully asked you; we won't be asking a 3rd time, just fyi. Thank you. |

Thanks that helps. The only other ones he gets is the Distemper and Kennel Cough ever 6 months because I get them groomed and it is required. |
