| Internet info on vaccines Our member MoonValley would be a good one to PM with this question. It is a controversial area and if you research it on the internet a lot of homeopathic vets will show up with articles on how we are "over vaccinating our pets, how they develop allergies and their immune system is compromised by too much vaccination, etc." They say that a lot of the vaccines are just given because tht is how the vets make their money. Even rabies, which is required by law is controversail in areas where there are no recent cases of rabies. It is something everyone has to research for themselves and make up their own minds about. It is usually on the second and thrid rounds of boosters that you get the "bad reactions". I would ask several vets what they feel is NECESSARY for your area and what vaccines they give their own dogs.If you want websites, let me know and I will post some. |
