For those that VACCINATE themselves....

I'm seriously considering this with the amount of rescues we get in and the hassle and $$ of taking a trip to the vet just to vaccinate.

What do you vaccinate for, besides rabies?
(distemper, parvovirus, Bordatella, etc.)
I have been told not to worry about vacinating for Lepto & Corona due to my location and other factors.
Do you use the 5 in 1 vaccine, or some other type of combo vaccine?
Where do you buy the vaccines? Do you have a specific online retailer you find is better than others?
I prob would not use Ft. Dodge cause my dogs had a reaction to one of their shots. Personally, I'm leaning toward the 5 in 1 vaccine, per vet tech recommendation.
Any brands you like specifically?
Feedback appreciated....
thanks in advance!

And you know me, can't post without a pic!

I have a stupid question, on the site it says quantity 25x1d

does that mean 25 doses in each bottle? Or is that the price for one shot?
Sorry if it's stupid, I have not done it myself before and am not sure what that means.

Thanks!

Does doing it yourself count with animal control for the rabies

Is it hard to administer?

To get my guys there shots it costs $145, for the shots and the check up for each dog times 4, then $110 for each cat tiimes 3, then 13% tax on top of that. I would be interested in doing it myself if I could.

I also use this same shot for puppies and adult dogs

I will not use Ft Dodge as they do not back their vaccines.....if your pet gets sick after using Ft Dodge you are just SOL. One reason we use SheringP.
I get mine from revival and if you order them before the july 31st increase they are I believe 44.99 for 25 individual shots(you have to buy syringes) and if you include 2nd day air it's about $60.....can't beat those prices!!

A liscensed veterinarian is only allowed to give Rabies shots he

Regular vaccinations however can be administered by the owner and as long as we keep the vials the shots came in and the receipt of purchase, we can use those to prove we gave the vaccines.

Shering Plough

This is the one i prefer- no lepto and Carona.
Revival is a great place to order from with good reputation.


you still get the same protection as from a vet. if thedog contracts parvo or distemper with your proven vacination record they will pay up to qa certain amount for treatment at your vets.

A GF of mine got 900 towards treatment of a pup that had Parvo.
I also love that Shering Plough actually will answer thier phone lines and answer any questions..
