Vaccination Boosters ??? Do you get your furbabies vaccinated with DHLP Booster and PARVO Booster every year ? Mine only weigh 5 lbs each and I'm wondering if they are getting over Boostered ? They are indoor babies most of the year in our area. They get their rabies shot every 3 yrs but Im wondering if their immune system carries the DHLP and PARVO in their systems longer. Any information would be helpful, thanks.... |
shots I give all puppy shots, except Lepto..then a booster around 2 to 3 yrs..again at 6 yrs and no more after that age..but that is only me. Do an Internet search on over vaccinating and send it to the vet to explain your decision. |
I believe in over-vaccinating. If you're concerned about your yorkie's immunity you could request a titer (blood test to test level of immunity). I vaccinate my puppies with the minimal vaccines (no lepto, corona, bordatella,ect..) Then I re-vaccinate every 3 yrs. |
Thanks for the information. I believe my babies being 6 yrs and 8 yrs old now, they don't need those boosters every year being indoor dogs. I can see the rabies shot every 3 yrs because thats law here, but the others I don't think are a threat to their life if they don't get them each year. I was just wondering how the rest of you felt about these boosters every year for DHLP and Parvo that the vets are always pushing. Thanks foryour input. |
Bordetella Vaccine My puppy is 13 weeks old and is due for his vaccines (no lepto!) and I was wondering if he should get the bordetella. Anyone? |
over vax My concern is only parvo and distempter. plan on titering my puppy when I get him to see what he has in him already. I don't believe in boosters. I think one is enough. I may do nosodes if the titer comes out low. I know there isn't solid proof on it, but I've met many breeders who have had success with them. As far as rabies, I don't believe in that one. I think the side effects are worse then the possibility of what could happen. Some states allow you to titer for that too to use as proof. My opinion. I would do some research if I were you. I have some websites i can send you if you email me or PM me. suzie |
