What if my pet's vaccine lasts longer than proven to?


So what if  my pet’s vaccine lasts longer than registered for?

More days on the couch is what Toby wants
Facts - 
In Australia we have 2 vaccines types for dogs (for Parvo Virus), one that is PROVEN to last 12 months and the other PROVEN to last 3 years. Some vaccines do not have the tests to show the length of protection. Cats we use a live vaccine that is registered for 1 year currently, there are no registered 3 year vaccines at the moment.

Options for you -
Because the vaccines are very safe we recommend using them according to their researched and proven effect, HOWEVER, we can actually do a blood test to see whether you dog or cat’s protection is adequate and needs a booster.
It is worth noting, that without the test you are very likely leaving open your pet to DEADLY disease, which is the whole point of the vaccination in the first place.


So what do I need to do then?
Simply consider one of two options

             Protect your pet according to research data and according to the manufacturer  (from $27.50)
OR
Have a titre test performed to ensure they are protected (From $97.50)

SIMPLE!!!

It is ALL about making sure your pet is protected against deadly disease. You only have to have one of your dogs with parvo in your lifetime to know the value of vaccination protection. Parvo kills MANY dogs each year and lasts years in the ground....... not worth the risk.

What If the vaccine doesn’t last longer than proven to???? Are you willing to take the risk of parvo death or cat flu???
