Ossie 11 Posted May 13, 2007 Report Share Posted May 13, 2007 My apologies for my mistake there, Ossie. It wasn't the number of strains, was it. It was the time it was supposed to last. no worries i've not had cause to get further than the reception at the vets just before closing for a few months now, but i will make a special effort to pop in & try to catch the vet who jabbed me dog. wasn't my usual (brilliant) female vet fiona. i'll see what i can find out. All things being equell, that's the last she'll ever see of my " JR X Pointer ", as the stupid bitch declared it must be JR x pointer? is she f*cking blind? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Ditch_Shitter Posted May 14, 2007 Report Share Posted May 14, 2007 I swear to god! I took Small Dog in for her first jab and this woman asked me what she was. I said, " Jack Russel. " She cocked her eyebrow at me as if I'd just suggested I rub my head on the floor and with a condacending air, plainly intended to give me the message that She was a qualified vet and thus - at half my age - knew Far more about Dogs than I ever would, snorted; " Jack Russel?! I suspect ye'll find there's a bit of something more in there! Probably a ..... Pointer cross. " To which I held my fixed smile and let it pass. All the time thinking; " You stupid c***. And I'll bet ye don't think I'd have a clue where to stick that f*cking needle either, do ye? " JR x Pointer: According to a Vet Quote Link to post Share on other sites

johnskevena 0 Posted May 17, 2007 Report Share Posted May 17, 2007 Foxdrops; That's exactly what that huge PDF of official doccumentation I offered was about, mate. It was from the governing body of the US vetinarians. (Our vet's tend to use US liseanced jabs) It was basicly a hands up job. It stated that the vetinary profession, as a whole, was working on the basis of fifty year old information and applying it to bang up to date vaccines. In a nut shell ~ though it was an exhaustive and fasinating read. Took me about three days to get through it and digest it! ~ it was saying that, with the modern jabs, there is no need for " Booster " jabs. Period. They'd been jabbing Dogs and watching them for up to twelve years old. They gave up at that age because, well; If the f*kka's hadn't rolled over with Distemper, Parvo or god knows what by that age ....? Went into all the differant vaccine types. Bloody fasinating read. Aimed at vet's, after all. I believe it was a leak job Can this info be found online anywhere ditchshitter? Would not mind having a read of it Quote Link to post Share on other sites

oyama 27 Posted May 18, 2007 Report Share Posted May 18, 2007 For the past 6 yrs my lurcher has its regular jabs.We thought this year we would'nt bother.Would my dog not having a booster,be a threat disease wise to an 8 week old pup who obviously had no jabs yet.This might be a daft question but this is the 1st time we've not had a dog jabbed.Pup will have jabs at 10 weeks.

higgins 75 Posted May 18, 2007 Report Share Posted May 18, 2007 My apologies for my mistake there, Ossie. It wasn't the number of strains, was it. It was the time it was supposed to last. I'll not compound my mistake now by trying to remember (Guess) how long ye said that vet of yours said her Lepto jabs lasted ~ perhaps you could remind us? ~ but twice ye mentioned it on this forum. Twice I asked ye to get the details. I'm only interested on the simple basis that the whole issue of vaccinations is of great interest to me.

Aimed at vet's, after all. I believe it was a leak job Bottom line was that they were telling the vets to just give the first two shots and then kiss that flash motors payments goodbye. Or thay they could string the owners out, on the basis that they were selling 'Boosters' on a 'Peace of mind and reassurance' basis. Left it down to their individual conciounces, see? More interesting still is how uk vets. shortly after this little beauty hit the fan, started trying to bang out Bordatella jabs! My local c*** wanted my pup jabbed, Bordatella jabbed, mutilated and is gleefully expecting me back for boosters for the rest of the Dogs life?! F*cking wake up and smell the coffee, that one can! This is the modern world and we have the power of the internet! All things being equell, that's the last she'll ever see of my " JR X Pointer ", as the stupid bitch declared it must be i personally don't bother with boosters after the first set of vacinations,because that usually is enough for the pup to start it's own natural immunity defence as it will more than likely be coming into contact with said diseases and it's immune system should still be breeding antibodies in a healthy dog,the vets are using the excuse of reassuring people that they will need boosters in the same manner a sales person will sell you insurance for your Hi-Fi,Plasma Tv,they make plenty of money from the commision of insurance sales!

Guest Ditch_Shitter Posted May 18, 2007 Report Share Posted May 18, 2007 John; Sorry if I'm late back here, mate. I tend to sometimes lose the 'new posts' listing and so have to search about for what's new and must miss a lot. The PDF I had was ~ as said above ~ what I suspect someone leaked. I got it from a member of another forum. However, I still have that persons addy in my book. Keep 'em crossed and I'll drop them a note presently asking if they still have a copy. Martin; Her back half's ditch water! She must've fell in one. Oyama; That self same question bothered me, mate. My adult Dogs Never have 'Boosters'. Yet I've introduced Four tiny puppys amongst three un boostered adults. And those adults were being walked in public all the time too. What can I say? Never a problem. Bear in mind, of course; Parvo could blow in over the back fence or come in on ye own trousers, mate. Nothing we can do to stop it, in real terms. Are ye going to seal ye pup and the entire family in a bubble untill ye reckon that pup's 'safe'? Just concentrate on house training the little bugger and keep an eye on it otherwise. Shit can happen. But in 99.9% of cases it doesn't Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Ditch_Shitter Posted May 19, 2007 Report Share Posted May 19, 2007 Balls. Sorry, John. Just e mailed Christie ~ the person with the PDF ~ and their Mailer's dead. Don't give up hope yet though. I have a couple more angles to try yet. If it's findable, I'll do my damndest to find it. I'm off now to ask if anyone else on the forum it was posted on kept a copy. Failing that, I'll phone a friend. I know a 'Data Junkie' who probably has to buy whole new computers to store all her stuff on. Be just like her to have stashed it away somewhere Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ossie 11 Posted May 19, 2007 Report Share Posted May 19, 2007 http://rawfed.com/vax/vax.html a link to loads of documents on canine vaccination... maybe what you're looking for is in there somewhere, Ditch? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Frank Posted May 19, 2007 Report Share Posted May 19, 2007 A cousin of mine, lost a very good coursing dog, to weils desease, from not folowing up with a yearly booster. Frank. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Ditch_Shitter Posted May 19, 2007 Report Share Posted May 19, 2007 Thanks for what looks like an interesting site, Ossie. I'll try to look more closely at that one presently. Only I note their own disputation of the annual jabs trip is based on Dr. Schultz and Dr. Phillips, Current Veterinary Therapy, volume 9. 1992. ? Now, the doccumentation I studied, and am seeking now, I first saw in more like 2003/4 (?) and was contemporary. So it could well be a decade or more advanced, possibly even based on those good Doctors views. It was also released by the us vet's equivelant of the RCVS / BMA. Seriously top level stuff. I've posted a shout for it on the original forum. Let's give that time to filter through. Failing that I'll set my mate, onto it. See what she can dig up. She no longer speaks on the forum. But she's my trump card. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
