my vet feels the test for tiders are both expensive and inaccurate. In general it is better to vaccinate than to not. There are always exceptions. Bucko will never get another vaccine in his life. He has enough trouble already. He will also never have surgery. sheila Willenstark1@xxxxxxx wrote: For those concerned about over vaccinating, I am fairly sure you can have blood titre tests run which would detect immunities. Think about it -in humans some of the things we are vaccinated for are good for life and this test will prove if the antibodies are still in your system. debi james ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com. ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2007.
