Vet now advises DA2PP vaccination every 3 years rather than annually. I am all for less as long as dogs are protected.
My vet also does the vaccination every 3 years. Recommends lepto, lymes, bordatella yearly.
I've gone to 3 years for rabies and distemper/parvo, for adults, after they've had their complete puppy series. I do bordetella for dogs going off to trainers. I don't do Lyme. I do lepto (4 strain) annually.

Been doing the 3 year DA2PP for several years now up here, as well as the 3 year rabies and have had no issues.
For our older dogs (2 years old and up), my vet recommends every 2 years or have a titer done. Her reasoning is that my dogs are exposed to so many different dogs coming in to the kennel for training as well as traveling to so many other areas. Rabies for adult dogs is every 3 years; Bordatella is every 6 months intranasal.
Yes. And I make sure it's from the company that has the influenza vaccine in it.Quote:
