A healthy dog is an appropriately vaccinated dog, not an overly vaccinated dog.  It’s important that we expose our pup only to what is necessary, and in regards to vaccinations, that may mean fewer vaccinations and more titer tests.

Titer tests determine the level of antibodies your dog possesses for diseases in his blood, which may be determined by a blood test.  If your pooch has a strong antibodies for parvo, why continuously pummel his immune system with more vaccine?   Over vaccinating reaps major profits for big pharma, but  if your pet already has the antibodies she needs to protect against disease, additional vaccinations may be unnecessary, if not downright harmful.

Fortunately more vets offer titer testing, specifically holistically savvy vet clinics.   For more information on titer testing follow the links below or contact Dr. Judi Jasek at www.belleviewanimalclinic.com.
