When a 8lb dog gets a vaccination it is in a vial that is given to a 140lb dog, therefore your little 8lb dog is getting over vaccinated which leads to cancer amongst other things.

Do your homework and check out Titer Testing and if your vet disagrees, well then it’s time to move on to a vet that really cares for your pet’s well being.
you are correct! animal workers are frequently encouraged to get a rabies vax, esp if rehabbing wildlife. i had mine over 40 years ago, & instead of getting boosters, i get my titer checked. last i knew, about 25 years ago, my titer showed i did not need the booster. i havent been checked since out of the business
