The Parvo vaccinations only appear to be good for 6 months anyway so the
above doesn't mean much, for 40 years I only vaccinated my dogs every 5
years so why do I have to do it annually now.  Chris.
 
PS less than two years ago I had to have a dog pts. due to Parvo
within 9 months of it having had its shots, not a good advert for the
effectiveness of vaccinations.
