it is getting to be time for my chinese crested male to be neutered, i think. he is almost a year old.
he has had NO shots. none. in order to be neutered, he will have to get a rabies shot.
since i quit vaccinating all my other pets, they were already spayed/neutered, etc.
am not ok with it in general, plus, he's a crested, they already get skin cancer, etc like crazy. i feel adding a vaccine, any vaccine to this is not smart.
i have a little bit to think about this, but i am just not comfortable with him getting jabbed.

Mallory, I don't think NC allows any exemptions for medical reasons. Have you looked for a holistic vet that might neuter without a current rabies vaccination?
i know the one in winston-and she is actually not rally holistic, and she works at a horrible clinic. the whole clinic is traditional, and she is there a couple days a week...
sorry, i will keep him intact before i go there for anything.
i don't have a car, so leaving the triad area is pretty much not an option right now.

I use a spay neuter clinic and they don't require shot records nor do they give shots. Their surgical staff is amazing and on every dog I've taken in they've been able to do the job with one stitch. I've never had a problem or have I heard of an issue with their abilities.
Maybe there is a similar spay neuter clinic in NH?
Contact your local shelter and see if they are having a spay-neuter clinic day. In some areas, vets get together and kind of do a wham-bam-thankyou-ma'am day, where they just do surgery after surgery. They may not check shots. Just a suggestion.
