Vaccination Protocol at Mimmenuk

 

There has been much contravercy about over vaccinations for our pets and the terrible side effects that it can lead to. Yes we want to protect them and keep them safe, but those vaccines that are to do good also do much harm. As a pet owner one needs to be informed first and then make the right decisions, not walking into it blindly or just because everyone says you have to do it. Vaccines like diet can have a detrimental effect on your fur baby. Here I'm going to list the vaccination protocol at Mimmenuk for my own dogs. The puppies that leave here are fully vaccinated and the decisions on what happens next is left in the hands of the new owner.

This information is only to give you another side of vaccines. I will add links to this page so that you too can read for yourself what the experts have to say.

Here is the protocol that we recommend to our puppy buyers:

Based on Dr. Jean Dodds Research and Recommendations:
9 weeks:  Modified Live Virus  Distemper/Parvovirus only (e.g. Intervet Progard Puppy)
12 weeks:  MLV Distemper/Parvovirus only (e.g. Intervet Progard Puppy)
16-20 weeks:  MLV Distemper/Parvovirus only (e.g. Intervet Progard Puppy)
(or begin series of puppy shots AFTER 6 weeks and administer every 3-4 weeks, x3)

24 weeks or older, if allowable by law:  Killed Rabies Vaccine
1 year:  MLV Distemper/Parvovirus only booster
1 year (give 3-4 weeks apart from Dist/Parvo booster):  Killed 3 year rabies vaccine

After 1 year, annually measure serum antibody titers against specific canine infectious agents such as distemper and parvovirus. This is
especially recommended for animals previously experiencing adverse vaccine reactions or breeds at higher risk for such reactions (e.g.,
Weimaraner, Akita, American Eskimo, Great Dane). Another alternative to booster vaccinations is homeopathic nosodes. This option is considered an unconventional treatment that has not been scientifically proven to be efficacious. One controlled parvovirus nosode study did not adequately protect puppies under challenged conditions. However, data from Europe and clinical experience in North America support its use. If veterinarians choose to use homeopathic nosodes, their clients should be provided with an appropriate disclamer and written informed
consent should be obtained.

I (Dr Jean Dodds) use only killed 3 year rabies vaccine for adults and give it separated from other vaccines by 3-4 weeks. In some states, they may be able to give titer test result in lieu of booster.

I (DJD) do NOT use Bordetella, corona virus, leptospirosis or Lyme vaccines unless these diseases are endemic in the local area pr specific kennel. Futhermore, the currently licensed leptospira bacterins do not contain the serovars causing the majority of clinical leptospirosis today.

I (DJD) do NOT recommend vaccinating bitches during estrus, pregnancy or lactation
