Tony Longworth Webboard User Reg: 05-16-2012 Posts: 7 Loc: Offline	Have been reading everything I can find about vaccinations. I have a new Bouvier I imported him from the Netherlands. He is currently 12 weeks old. His passport shows that he has received his parvo, and distemper at 6 weeks and 8 weeks. Lepto at 8 weeks. His mom got mastitis at 3 1/2 weeks so he went off her milk about then. It is "time" for his 12 week boosters. I am inclined to pass on these. I did so with my last Bouvier and had no issues. I am trying to be extra aware with this guy as he is out of great KNVP lines and I have high hopes for him. I can do what I have always done and hope for the best results or ask the forum for advice and possibly learn something new to go on. Any help would be appreciated! Tony

Tony Longworth Webboard User Reg: 05-16-2012 Posts: 7 Loc: Offline	Connie, thanks for the reply and yes I am. My last Bouvier only had the 1st 2 puppy vaccinations until he was about 5 when we were traveling and had to board him. I have lost a puppy to parvo, a long time ago. I now know in retrospect he may have died from his parvo vaccination. It would just kill me if my dog contracted something because I did not vaccinate. It could not be any more painful than losing my male Bouvier at 8 years old from very aggressive cancer that may or may not have been related to vaccinations and diet. So... just trying to get a feel for what people are doing, thinking. Tony

Tony Longworth Webboard User Reg: 05-16-2012 Posts: 7 Loc: Offline	Thanks Connie, food for thought for sure. I have always titer tested my dogs after the 1st 2 puppy series. Tony

I do think, though, that we have gone vax-crazy. Like over-use and mis-use of antibiotics (and what a mess that has created), I believe that we have taken a life-saving thing and run amok with it. http://speakingforspot.com/blog/2013/03/17/veterinarians-and-vaccines-a-slow-learning-curve/
