*ferrifleboy 19 Posted December 30, 2011 Report Share Posted December 30, 2011 How many of you vaccinate against Leptospirosis I've heard dogs can have fatal reactions to this vaccination.. I'm bringing on my first terrier for ratting, I've always ran lurchers before now and not sure if it's worth being done.. Cheers! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bootsha 1,306 Posted December 30, 2011 Report Share Posted December 30, 2011 No vacination is guaranteed to work, you can only suspect that they work when your animal doesn't catch what you vaccinated against, but you can tip the scales in your favour by vaccinating against whatever it is you dont want it to catch. Do it, if it helps a bit its a good thing. Regards B Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Just after peoples views and to see if anyone has had there's vaccinated for it, cheers Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bootsha 1,306 Posted December 30, 2011 Report Share Posted December 30, 2011 I vaccinate mine with a 7 in 1 that has 4 lepto strains included in the liquid that you use to re hydrate the powder with ( as oppsed to most that use distilled water to re hydrate the powder). As I said earlier, you'll never know just how effective a vaccine is, just as long as you dont get it thats the main thing. B Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Squirrel_Basher 17,100 Posted December 30, 2011 Report Share Posted December 30, 2011 Please dont refrain from jabbing your terrier mate .The vaccine used these days is very safe and the consequences of not jabbing can sometimes be devastating ,trust me .I vaccinate everything and never had a problem . 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

zx12edge 1,001 Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 Lost one of my lurchers a few years ago to Leptospirosis not nice.If dogs are going to see a lot of rats or are in water a lot think it is a must to make sure they are vaccinated against it.
