I am not talking about the puppy jabs. this is about the yearly one.
there is a lot of controversy as to whether to have your dogs vaccinated
annually I have not had them done since starting raw feeding and
reading up a lot of the why's and wherefore's.

my vet recommends it, but then again he would, he wants the money.

does your vet recommend annual booster vaccs?
this is a very well written blog on why not to have them done..

we have fred done every year and will have daisy done too, this is mainly because we sometimes kennel them and training clubs often prefer them vaccinated....

but saying this, we had boss 14 years and he never had his yearly boosters Does your dog have yearly booster vaccs?..this is a poll please leave a yes or no. 583730

Exactly Shelley
all the GSD's etc I've had over the **** lots of years none of them lived past 6 years old. now I don't know if this was because they were all vaccinated every year or not. but, I have Tilly, she only had puppy jabs nothing else at all, and she is now 8 years old even my
vet has said she is like a 4 year old dog, great teeth, coat, a picture of
health. that's enough for me to believe that yearly boosters are not necessary.

id be inclined to think the same karen Does your dog have yearly booster vaccs?..this is a poll please leave a yes or no. 910222

.....

...

bings was done when we got him he wasnt done after that for 7 years we only got his updated when we got blaze - just incase

I used to have mine done yearly, until I read that most of the manufacturers say that certain ones will last 3yrs which is a bit strange as the vets say yearly. My brother-in-law is a retired vet and if you bring this up to him he will avoid the subject, not gonna say anything about his friends who are vets is he!!!!!

I know many people who only have puppy jabs and nothing else. I hate the thought that we are pumping all these un-needed chemicals into our dogs bodies.

xena / axle not done for 2 years , bliss /balie have had 1 booster

my two both have annual boosters.....well Marley has kala will be due next month

I am convinced Sandra we are doing more harm than good to our dogs.
I have been for years that's why Tilly has not been booster vaccinated.

for what reason did you stop Hilary Does your dog have yearly booster vaccs?..this is a poll please leave a yes or no. 300576

I read and re-read the differing reports on vaccinations, I was then able to make an informed choice. All the dogs have had their initial jabs and |Sacha was done when we got her as a four year old.

All of us had our immunisations as a child, but we don't repeat the procedure every year.

get all mine done yearly,especially being in contact with so many dogs,n used2 work as vet nurse,its terrible dealing with dogs with parvo etc,,

I do puppy jabs and 12 months booster then every 2 years while they are in my breeding program, just cause i have puppies about i think better safe than sorry thats all.... but i do agree it is a scam to get more money from people.... We dont get boosters every year...... cant be good for your immune system.....

As a general rule we do not booster our dogs for various reasons.

We do however, booster our bitches before they mated to give extra protection to the puppies.
