RE: Take A Sniff, a freewrite

You wish...so do I, way too often!
Hazel is beautiful, what an apt name with that coat.
You are so fortunate to have found a vet who has an open mind and is not stuck on text book dogmas!
I have to take my feral 'grandchild' Poe for his rabies booster. A friend recommended her vet, but I'm not keen on other vaccines. We'll see!
Hope to see you here again soon.I'm so glad I popped over to see what you've been doing with your life @owasco!

Sort:  

It's really hard to find a vet who won't push every vaccine there is on you. Most boarding facilities require all of them, too. I think the vets must get kickbacks of some kind for vaccine compliance, just like our pediatricians do. I'm determined to keep my current animals healthy until ripe old ages, and I believe minimal vaccination is key to this. A healthy body would easily fight all those illnesses with no harmful effects, even Lyme. So far, so good.

It's always nice to see your smiling personage too, Lizelle!


The only vaccine I will let Poe have is rabies, as we have monkeys and mongoose running through our garden and they can carry that. We never used to give our pets any other vaccines and they stayed healthy!
Enjoy the rest of your Wednesday <3Awe thank you @owasco!
