Well, it's time for Lily's yearly shots again and I am wondering if she REALLY needs all of them. Of course I want her to have everything she truly needs to protect her, but after reading about the side effects of some of these shots and the fact that after a certain point a dog may not even need some of these boosters, I need to know more. Can someone give me some opinions?
She is 4 1/2 yrs old and she is due for:
Bordetella Booster
DHLP-P Booster
Fecal Exam (yearly)
Heartworm Exam-Occult (yearly)
Rabies Canine 1 Year Booster
I know she needs the rabies and probably the other stuff, too. I just want to be sure I am not giving her stuff she doesn't need and putting her at risk for either that or NOT getting her vaccinated when she needs it.
I feel even more concerned this time since my son's little dog (6 month old chi/rat terrier mix) was apparently the victim of a "bad" batch of distemper meds and died.
Anyway, I would appreciate and advice or opinions...
Thanks so much!
Sharon
