apache Posted January 3, 2012 Report Share Posted January 3, 2012 Lepto kills dogs. Most by the time they are diagnosed are too late to save. I have seen dogs die from lepto 2 or 3 years after a missed booster. It's not a decision you need to make - it's responsible dog ownership Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arwen3513 Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 have heard of few dogs dying from lepto after drinking from ditch water, for the amount it costs its not worth the risk. however if you dog has had a reaction to injections in the past you need to discuss options with your vets. jan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ferguson_tom Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 (edited) My collie had 2 Nobivac Lepto 2 injections one at 8 weeks the other at 10, my springer pup is getting her second tonight. Assuming this is the same vaccine. I think its a necessity with puppy injections and my dog traning club checked i had it before we could be around the other dogs. I just give my dog what vaccines are recommended by the vets and they will be going back every year for boosters.
