SAME HERE! I give my dogs one vaccination as an adult (between 1 and 2
years of age) and THAT'S IT.  Except for rabies as require by law, I'm not
taking chances with that....we've had rabies incidents as close as 2 miles
from my house, so my dogs are kept up to date (every 3 years).

Between the minimal vaccinations and feeding raw whole food, plus good
genetics, my dogs have been much MUCH healthier.  I actually had one year
where the total vet bill for my 3 GSDs was.....ZERO.
