My city requires a rabies vaccination every year, however my vet and my dogs breeder recommend doing the vaccine only every three years. The rabies vaccine is very powerful and can drain an animal for several days after it has been administered. It is also works for many years, not just one or three. Right now, there is research going into just how long the vaccine is active in dogs to determine what kind of regimin dogs should be on. There is also a blood test available from your vet that can test if your dog's vaccine is still working or if another needs to be administered. Results from this test can be presented to my city so that he doesn't need to be given a rabies vaccine annually to be licensed if the vaccine is still active.Please help stop the over vaccination of our pets.
