After initial completion of the vaccination program for puppies and kittens, it has been found that protective titers (antibodies) may remain from 3 to 7 years and in some cases much longer.
You may see a change in the countries vaccination programs, from yearly to possibly every 3 years or may be not at all, however a yearly antibody titer test will indicate if a vaccine is even necessary.
There are many other considerations like amount of vaccine to give, possible sites of the injection and allergic reactions that may occur or already have occurred due to the vaccination.

Re: Pet Vaccinations
This is a hot button for me…..Dr. Ron Schultz of the University of Wisconsin has been researching the longevity of pet vaccines (something the drug industry seems never to have done) since 1995. The veterinary community also seems to be ignoring Dr. Schultz’ findings.
I have found the following information but have not been successful in determining if the case is current, has been heard, dismissed or still in the courts.
Chicago lawfirm of Childress Duffy Goldblatt, Ltd. Announcement!
You may be a party to a potential class action lawsuit arising from the misrepresentation of the need for vaccinations for your pets.
If, within the last four years, you have paid for any of the following pet vaccinations without receiving adequate disclosure, you may have a claim for damages. The vaccines include the following:
1) Annual vaccination for canine distemper, parvovirus, and feline distemper, rhinotracheitis, calcivirus
(Scientific studies indicate that repeat administration of these vaccines provides no beneficial effect.)
2) Corona virus vaccination.
(Scientific studies indicate dogs over 8 weeks old are not susceptible to this disease.)
3) Leptospirosis or Lyme disease vaccination
(Research indicates these diseases are rare to non-existent in Texas and many other parts of the country.)
4) Feline Aids vaccine, Feline Infectious Peritonitis vaccine, or Giardia vaccine
(Scientific studies have shown these vaccines to be ineffective.)
If you have paid for any of the above vaccinations in the last four years and would like information concerning your rights, please send an email to:
