Please do not use Colloidal Silver for parvo. I have also read it cures HIV - give me a break. The versions at healthfood stores are homeopathic, try water. :rolleyes:
The beauty of this board is that you can say almost anything and as long as you throw one of these <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> in all is fine.LOL
Hi, Karmen.
I just wanted to add that not all vaccinations are good for life, because titers vary according to the type of vaccination. For instance, in people, polio vaccine is a one time vaccine; Hepatitis B is a series of 3, and even then the titer may not be at a therapeutic level, which necessitates a second series. Even after a second series you'll sometimes find a person whose titer is sub-therapeutic. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> (I'm following Chuck's advice...)
Like you, I gave my opinion. I'll not berate those that disagree with me, nor will I argue with those that have different opinions. Among the things I've learned while working with dogs is: The only thing two trainers will agree on is the 3rd one is wrong. Have a great day and keep a tight leash.

Any behavior that is reinforced is more likely to occur again.
Bounette, giving those two vaccines later is just as good as giving the whole series; you just had bad luck! Your pup was old enough when the first vaccine was given that there probably weren't maternal antibodies around to keep the vaccine from working. The vaccine manufacturers even suggest only two vaccs in older pups. It could be that your vet got a bad batch of vaccines or something.
"Inject 1ml sudcutaneously or intramuscularly as early as 6 weeks or age. Repeat every 3 to 4 weeks until 12 weeks of age. Dogs over 12 weeks of age inject twice 3-4 weeks apart." instructions for progard 5
"Dog breeding must always be done by a dog lover, it can not be a profession." -Max v Stephanitz
do any of you do the vaccines at home your selves
???
how often is that done? lets say you get a pup at 9 weeks of age what is suggested ? i was looking at the vaccines that can be bought in the foster's and smith catolog and i was a tiny bit confused.anyone????
I remember you pushing your vets. advice in another post, which I guess was ok because it came from MSPINDLER'S vet. and if she believes in it it must be true, if somebody's opinion is not the same as you or your vet. you go into a typing tirade.
I'm done going back and forth with you have good day. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
Anyway, Bounette, sorry to see this thread get hijacked. It seems like you are doing everything you can to figure out what went wrong, and I really hope you're not blaming yourself. I can tell that you're not one of those people who looks everywhere but in the mirror when things go wrong. All words of condolence probably seem hollow after your loss, but you have mine.

Sorry about the turn this thread has taken. Now back to business, look at the article on Vaccinosis it has a a vaccination schedule for puppies, also check out http://www.critterfixer.com.
I don't think I said it before but I'm very sorry to hear about your lost. I have a 22 week old puppy and I couldn't imagine something happening to her.
Keep your head up and keep doing research to learn as much as you can. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
