No, I have a civic responsibility to see that due process is followed, that my privacy is not invaded (nor my neighbors) to see that I am not taxed w/o representation, and to insure, to the best of my ability, my pets' safety and health even when it goes against what the gov't is telling me is healthy for them. Because God knows the Gov't and the medical community is NEVER wrong, yes? LOLOLOL Overvaccinating....a big problem. I will not go blindly on some gov't jackasses' recommendation for the "good " of my dogs, or for that matter, the "good" of their wallets. I will not be led into that abyss, while my neighbors f***ing feral cats, soil my yard and a pack of indiscriminately breeding dogs run the neighbor hood, unchecked. They (the AC, gov't and ARistas) are picking on the wrong group. I don't think protecting my right to privacy, and my animals' health makes me a criminal, and I will not be treated as such, by lobbyists, AC, a few nosey vets (not all by any means) and counties that will take any opportunity to dip into my pocket. I only hope THEY are the object of such lack of due process, and asinine , needless regulation as they wish to levy on other people. By the way, you may also wish to research how DANGEROUS Rabies vaccines can be , and how NEEDLESS most vaccines are that are foisted onto an unknowing , un educated pet public.
