I am all for safer vaccines, and for being conservative with vaccination. After a long talk with my vet, I have decides to ONLY keep Jasper up to date with Rabies as required by law and for Distemper. She told me flat-out that the bordatella vaccine was a waste of my money, and that combination vaccs like the DAP and DHLPP are much muhc harder on a dog's system then spacing out the vaccs and doing them individually.

Remember if you are bringing your pet in for vaccines to ask for non-agivented vaccines when possible. They are less risky than agivented vaccines, especially for cats.

I think it is absolutely criminal not to tell someone about the risks to their pet before any procedure, including vaccines and spay/neuter.

Sending good vibes to my good friend whose kitty is currently battling a vaccine-induced fibrosarcoma.
