Why don't people understand that vaccines are bad for animals, too..?

They aren't natural. It's abusive, just like kibbled diets. If you aren't going to care for your dog properly, then don't get one.

    ok I believe in vaccines, but don't agree with giving them every year. YOU don't get yours every year. I do the 3-4 puppy shot series, a boost at 1 year and then I don't boost until they are 10, provided they are in perfect health.

    Probably because people understand that diseases like parvo and rabies are even worse.

    Domestic dogs are not natural. Living in a house with humans isnt natural. Having a collar and ID tags isnt natural. A fence and leash are not natural.

    "Natural" doesnt always mean safe either... Poison Ivy is natural... Do you want to rub it on your skin?

    Your rants would be taken a lot more seriously if you wrote them in English.

    Otherwise, this same song and dance is getting boring.

    Instead of vaccines, have the Vet run titers to prove immunity. It's expensive, but I have it done.

    Define 'bad for'. In India, with a population 4 times that of the US, about 21,000 people die of rabies every year. How many die of it in the US? One or two, and they'll probably get it from a wild animal. And it's all due to vaccination. Because of it, rabies in domestic pets in the US is virtually unknown and that makes people less likely to get it.

    I'm old enough to remember when vaccination for distemper was not routine in North America, and I've known several animals which died of that as well as one which survived the disease but was left in poor health for the rest of her relatively short life.

    I'm also old enough to remember when every single kid got mumps, measles, and chicken pox. Some of them died of those things. You might also want to read up on polio, diphtheria, whopping cough, scarlet fever, and smallpox. Lots of people died of those. You have never known anyone who got them, and neither have I because there were vaccines for them before we came along.

    Check your facts and consider the whole picture before making silly statements.

    Rabies vaccinations are REQUIRED in every state in the USA for good reason.

    And canine and feline distemper kills dogs/cats in less than 10 days. That one, also, should be given. Add in parvo for dogs and you can cover for at least the basic viral killers of pets.
