I opt out of vaccines for my dogs! I only give them rabies because the vet can’t(won’t) treat them without it.

It is not worth ONE child’s life to prevent the possible spread of an STD/Virus.

Oh I vaccinate my dogs. Its more so because other people don’t take care of their dogs.

Why do you opt out of the parvo vaccine? I had two puppies that died from that horrid virus (we vaccinated them, but they caught it from a stray in the yard before the vaccine took effect) and I can’t imagine anyone not wanting that protection!

I recently lost an 18 year old cat whom I never vaccinated since she was 8 years old. We never had trouble with vets refusing to see her; we would explain that she'd had a pretty severe immune disease (cost us thousands to treat her!) and we didn't want to risk activating her immune system with vaccines. When I moved from MD to TX, she came in the car with me while our other, vaccinated cats, flew.

If there isn't a medical reason to withhold vaccines, I don't know why someone wouldn't want to protect their pets.
