thats realy useful, i just had a quick skim of the content, but will read it in great depth later, when im not so tired & glued to the computer!

i dont vaccinate my dogs, they were all done at the rescue centre but not since, they have titre tests done instead and they always come back as immune. vaccinations are a waste of money

i think its important to vacinate dogs the reason the dont catch the diseases is because they have been kept under controll by vaccinating puppys if you stop this the diseases will come back.

I agree with you lou , if we don't vaccinate our animals then all these diseases will come back , the only reason they aren't as common now is because people do vacs their , It doesn't have to be done every year like some vets say so the vac's last longer than a year , puppy injections are very important , for many diseases , ,Pepsi has had in her 10 yrs so far all her puppy injections and then every 3 yrs she due to have them this year ,

I would rather pay out and have all my dogs & pups covered as so many people dont and you dont know what is round the corner

im glad I have cover on pepsi as she just cost me £360 for the mammary tumors she had , I think all the dogs Ihave had and had when i was A kid , I dont think they had boosters every year , My old collie never had a jab all but puppy ones all his life and he was fine , Its just if your puppy /dog had one of the diseases that they our vac's for then insurance companies will not pay out , because you could of prevented them from having it in the first place .

I have my dogs vaccinated and will continue to do so but I seem to remember growing up the farm dogs didn't get vaccinated but then they were not being socialized with other dogs.

george has his vacs done on a regular basis , and is due next month for his booster and a check up due to his age.
