You mention Florida.  Well, the law in Florida requires that they be
vaccinated for rabies every year, so there isn't room for argument there.
In the case of distemper, they only get one at the farm.  You have to get
two more before you can consider it immune.  No one is sure just how long
the immunity last, but everyone knows that distemper is the most aweful
disease.
