What are your thoughts on yearly dog shots?

Q: My pups, Siberian Huskies, are coming due for their yearly shots (they had all the puppy shots) and I was wondering what your opinions were on re vaccinating each year whether it is necessary or not? I just spoke to a more holistic vet that said they do blood testing to see if your dog has antibodies or not to see whether they need the vaccine again or not, sounds expensive though…?? I need some opinions on what other people’s practices are (And I know about dog diseases such as parvo and distemper and rabies.. just so everyone is aware, I am a very responsible pet owner!!, that’s why I am asking…. I had a cat pass away from a faulty vet shot, that’s why I want to know what’s absolutely necessary….. Thanks!So far the titer tests are sounding the best, is it expensive to get this done??Also, there’s no heartworm where I live due to the weather (British Columbia). I understand that it is only in warner climates and that if I go travelling with my pets I should get it…..The female is spayed the male is not neutered. We can’t have puppies but we can make ’em. I do not want him neutered, he’s not aggressive, he’s the submissive dog and he’s not out running around impregnating other dogs so he is going to stay natural 🙂 I did phone a different vet as I did not want to feel like I had to choose something right away, want to know all my options and then I will call and have a better idea of what to ask aboutAww Dorothy S your GSD is a sweetheart!! Good job on the training. Our dog trainer has 3 GSD’s as well, I have seen amazing things from them! Yes I agree with the nasty stuff that is added to medications….yuck. Yes, that makes sense about the cancer for not neutering… good to keep in mind!

A: If you want to see if your dog is in need of getting a vaccination the best thing to do is to get its titers checked. It stands to reason that over-vaccinating can be just as harmful to your pet as under-vaccinating. That is what your doctor would do to ensure that you are properly inoculated, so that is why I argue for having the titers checked for your pet…they are part of the family too :)In addition, companies that manufacture the vaccines only run studies to verify that their product works until a certain date. They do not conduct extensive studies to verify how long (on average/individual results vary) it takes for the vaccination to no longer be effective; these types of studies are lengthy and expensive. For example the rabies vaccination is ‘good’ for 3 years because it has been verified by studies to certify it stable for 3 years, but is it good for 5 years? or 10 years? And the way the companies verify their claims is by what? You guessed it…checking the titers.On a side note, even though your dog is not aggressive you really should consider having him neutered for his health; you prevent the risk of testicular cancer. Also even though he is not ‘running around’ there is the always the possibility of an unplanned litter. It is definitely something you really should consider for the health of your dog as well as the peace of mind knowing that you are doing your part to help control the pet population. Hope this helps 🙂

Do dogs cause diseases in humans?

Q: Now, basically, I’m wondering what sort of diseases Dogs can cause in humans… all the way from Brain Tumors (how can a dog do that!?) to… allergies. So… please tell me what you can.Are dogs dangerous to a man’s health if they’re kept in the home?o_0I mean… I don’t see people falling over and dying due to dog related diseases every day… yet, one of the doctors I know says that they can cause deadly diseases!

A: Man and dogs have lived together for centuries. Sure some diseases can be transmitted from dogs to man such as rabies but certainly not brain cancer. Common sense methods such as hand washing can prevent the transmission of common viruses and bacteria.

The image of my dog being put to sleep.?

Q: My dog which lived to the age of 15 that i got when i was around 3 or 4 (im 18 now) died about this time last year. I’m not even looking for help, i just feel like talking about it… Basically the night before it happend we knew she wasn’t good, she had a couple different diseases dogs get from old age and she wasn’t very mobile, we had to take care of her A LOT, but didn’t mind at all, i loved her. Just typing this makes me very emotional. I had been suffering from depression / anxiety and ADD for 4-5 years now which just adds to the mental stress and pain the event gave me. The morning after i woke up to hear a sniffy nose of my parents coming to wake me up holding my dog with a semi-limp body and telling me she just had what appeared to be a seizure and we rushed her to the vets office where he informed us the most humane option would be… to put her to sleep. My mind raced like crazy, ididn’tt know what to think, what to do, how would my life be without someone ive known for like 90% of it. And my parents and i walked into the back room where they do all those procedures. She appeared better then she was when she had the seizure (obviously). My eyes we’re like waterfalls since she was always kind of “My” dog, meaning she spent most of the time in the family with me. And when the doctor came in with the shot of drugs to OD her and was putting on the gloves while explaining the process i just about broke down and died. I couldn’t get over the fact how unfair it was she was about to be killed and she had NO CLUE WHAT SO EVER. Since that event ive become more and more depressed, some days i dont even get out of bed, ive been late to work a couple times in a last month due to not even wanting to leave my room, and one of those times i was late because i stayed asleep until about 3:10 pm and my day started at 3pm, so i didnt actually get to work til about 3:30. Back to the story, after the doctor finished explaining the process he put a few straps on her to make sure she didnt bounce around or try to escape (she was a pretty small dog to, a bichon frise) and as she laid on her side looking around, he injected her and slowly the drugs did their job and i could feel her life being sucked from her body right infront of me. The look in her eyes as she slipped away got burnt into my mind for eternity, the image is still there right now and i can never get rid of it. I never EVER want to experience seeing someone die, and i hope no one else has to, its probably one of the worst and most traumatizing things you’ll ever experience. And what i fear the most is i have another dog thats 11 now, we got her a few years after the the other one, and i know she wont be around many more years and i dont know if i could live after going through it again…Sorry for the confusion in the beginning of it, we had her put to sleep this time last year, meaning around january 08′, i got her when she was a baby when i was 3 or 4, and she lived for 15 years from there on, meaning i was 17 when she was put to sleep. Not 3 years ago.

A: wow i actually started crying. i am so sorry for your dogs death and how it had to be done. i always thought that putting animals to sleep didnt feel right and makes the owner more psycologically hurt because they feel like they killed their own dog. i have never had a dog but i can see the love they give their owners. dogs are truly mans best friend and are so loyal. i hope that you will be ok and that even tho it is still hard for you, remember that death is a part of life. and if your religious then you can remember that God has a plan and try to remember the good times you had with her/him. and about our current dog, you should try to enjoy how ever long you have left with him/her because nothing last forever (physically). im sorry and God bless
