Are annual shots overkill!!!

Sorry Sarah, if I came off that way. It's definitely just "my opinion", and I wouldn't want to force it on anyone or make anyone feel bad because of it. The fact is that you are protecting your puppy, shots or not.

I agree, that the "well, they've been over-vaccinating for decades" thing is not a valid excuse. There are plenty of dogs who have had reactions & plenty of dogs who get the shot yearly and still contract the disease, the thing is that most vets have their own excuses that they force on owners, I've heard many. That reasoning, to me, is on the same level as "well, dogs have been fed kibble for decades..."

Bah, don't worry about it. Like I said, I wasn't in a great mood yesterday.

Yeah, I feel the same way!
