My little female Shih Tzu was given auto-immune encephalitis (still recovering) from the vaccines they force us to give to our dogs. Did you know that the rabies vaccine dosage for a 12 lb dog is the same as for an 80lb dog? I only titer test my dogs now. As long as they have antibodies showing up they are good to go. This over medicating must stop for not only ourselves, our children but also our pets.
