I know this topic is ancient, but I just want to chime in about vaccines. When I first adopted Lily her vaccine history hard to find, because she has had two different owners and was first vaccinated at a Petco. We opted for rabies, the parvo/distemper/hepatitis/whatever else they throw in, and bortedella. Lily’s grooming facility requires the bortedella vaccine, so we didn’t really have a choice for that. I’m not sure if it is required ever 6 months or every year, I will opt for the least often. Both rabies and parvo/distemper are listed to be every 3 years by the vet. We will definitely go ahead with the rabies vaccine, but we might get a titer for parvo/distemper. We did not get vaccines for lepto, lyme disease, or rattlesnake bite do to low risk factors in our area.
