I was advised by a vet that annual vaccinations may be harmful to my dog.
On researching this, I have found that there is evidence that Annual vaccinations are not recommended , and that they may be harnmful.
Yet my boarding Kennel insists on annual vaccinations
So...who's right?

Re: Vaccination frequency
I only did the vac thing till my dogs were about 3 yrs old then I only did them IF they ever had to go into kennels. Apart from that I do not vaccinate apart from heartworm

So, although it's possibly harmful for the dog, it might be ok for you when Kay sends you off to the kennels for a bit of peace and quiet Jon

Re: Vaccination frequency
As long as Kay is still checking you for ticks it can't be that bad
It's bugger when the play dead, sit and lie commands just seem to come natural but you still put up a fight with the roll over one, but the pat on the head and good boy makes it all worthwhile
