Some dog breeds have more troubles with vaccinations than others, so I think it's up to the peeps to make that important decision. Always realizin' the pros and cons to their doggie, and others.<br />Kisses,<br />RubyRubyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10174917571557571096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-938120942169485220.post-39977535664948685382013-06-14T19:12:14.578-04:002013-06-14T19:12:14.578-04:00I just made a blog post similar to this BOL!

As of now, I'm unsure of what I'll revaccinate her for, besides rabies. I figure I'll do DPPH, but that's probably it.<br /><br />Interesting that big cats can get canine distemper.<br />Nola's MomDachshund Nolahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12050622761352753529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-938120942169485220.post-34434355272506947892013-06-14T15:57:29.402-04:002013-06-14T15:57:29.402-04:00I'm very thankful that my vet stays on top of ...I'm very thankful that my vet stays on top of the latest info and gives me good advice. She doesn't just do the same thing every time.<br /><br />People forget that it wasn't that long ago that puppies died from parvo and distemper all the time. Vaccinations are important. And it's good that people are taking them so seriously.Pamela | Something Wagging This Way Comeshttp://www.somethingwagging.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-938120942169485220.post-79107721902889222092013-06-14T11:10:05.033-04:002013-06-14T11:10:05.033-04:00It's a touchy subject.

On the whole I think single vaccines are okay, I don't care for the shots that include multiple protections as I work right next to a Dr.'s office and have been told of all the other ingredients that are in the vaccine. I do tend to think the vaccines last longer than we are told as well.<br /><br />I always consult my Vet and we have decided to vaccinate for Leptos and Rabies. My Vet feels that my dogs are okay with not having other vaccines. They are also never kenneled, don't go to do parks. Which is a consideration.<br /><br />I did not know that tigers could get canine distemper.Jodihttp://www.heartlikeadog.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-938120942169485220.post-53857220413689509822013-06-14T04:46:24.565-04:002013-06-14T04:46:24.565-04:00I don't vaccinate my dog anymore.

I had a cat die after receiving her annual booster. Had I know, I wouldn't have bothered. I stopped vaccinating my dog after the age of three, and my remaining cat when he was eight. Now would only go through the first round of shots and possibly the following year.Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10219805596770405058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-938120942169485220.post-32325613102406022232013-06-14T01:47:02.199-04:002013-06-14T01:47:02.199-04:00I didn't know wildlife was affected by canine ...I didn't know wildlife was affected by canine distemper. We know there can be problems, but we have always vaccinated and all of our dogs have never had a problem with it. 24 Paws of Lovehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06574070591449171093noreply@blogger.com
