Thank god it is not that way in California. As long as the dog is over 1
year old it is a 3 year shot...

I know in PA if you don't have proof that the dog is current, the "new"
certificate is only good for one year and the dog has to be re-vaccinated.
The shot doesn't change, it's still the same etc., but you have to go back
in
a year instead of 3. This would happen if you didn't have a record of a
prior vaccine and/or if a dog came to stay w/o an up-to-date rabies cert.
This doesn't have anything to do w/ (quoting below) "new vets are now
getting schooled in the fine art of "billing" their clients and they are
very good learners."
It has to do w/ state law and vets keeping their records up to date re
"protection" not lapsing and what is considered, rightly or wrongly, about
vaccination effectiveness. (Probably wrongly based on titers I've had
done
for oldsters.)
So...if for whatever reason you go in w/ a dog who has lapsed or one where
you can't document they are still current, you get a certificate for 1
year.

Cindy,
I don't think a vet is allowed to do that???? When the shot is given they
must issue the certificate for the amount of years. I was late with my
dogs
rabies and my vet issued out th 3 year certificate. I would look into
it,
because now that means the rottie breeder has to go in again in 1 year
and
the rabies should be good for 3. Does not make sense to me. Mind you,
nothing these days makes sense at all! I*ts my new way of looking at
things.
I used to work for a vet and at the time it was illegal for anyone other
than a vet to give rabies shots. It may have changed but who would want
to
take a chance.

. A Rottie breeder friend of mine, took a dog in for his rabies shot
recently, and was a few weeks late. Not only did they charge a $40 office
visit for one shot (plus $25 for the shot), but they would only give him
a
a
rabies certificate valid for one year because he was "late" with the
vaccination. I can't say for sure but my guess is that new vets are now
getting schooled in the fine art of "billing" their clients and they are
very good learners.
