Vaccines

[Lacy's Mom]

I have a needle phobia, but my Mom is a nurse so she gives mine their parvo, distemper, etc. combination shots. Here in El Paso only vets can give rabies. Also, most boarding places will not accept "your word" and require that vets give all shots. They have to stay refrigerated so I am sure the shipping is expensive online. We just buy ours at a veterinary supply or livestock and feed supply locally. It is given subcutaneously not intravenously - don't know if my spelling is correct - anyway, under the skin not in the vein!

One other thing I would like to say... is to never give or have all shots given at the same time (the annuals and rabies)..it's to hard on the system and will make alot of Yorkies very sick.

The vaccines that I mentioned earlier were administered to my dog by the breeder. So is LCI Lepto? What do you guys recommend at 13 weeks? He's had 2 rounds of shots and he is scheduled for the 3rd at 13 weeks & the 4th at 16 weeks.
