Welcome to letstalkpetfoods

Hello ,


Thank you for your interest in Lets Talk Pet Foods Forum.

I am sorry to tell you that I am in the process of closing the forum due to lack of communication by members and the financial upkeep required on my part.


I recommend that you visit and perhaps consider subscribing to the newsletters on Susan Thixton's blog , The Truth about Pet Foods. http://www.truthaboutpetfood.com/

I am turning over all my information to Susan to add to her informative site.


Sincerely,

Pamela Myers

~ This is by an old country vet who tells where this *over vaccination idea* came from and why it stuck! He also wrote a book he is selling!
What he says about how and why this over vaccinating got started is very interesting, but does not surprise me in the slightest.

Dr James L Busby describes how vets overcharge pet owners by requiring unnecessary vaccinations.



Here is the website : http://www.oldcountryvet.com/

Here is some excerpts from his book!

Here are some examples of what my book is about:

* There has been much teeth gnashing in the profession in recent years over relinquishing annual vaccinations for
distemper/hepatitis/parvo virus (DHPPV) for dogs and three-way distemper (PCT) for cats. Think about this: People receive one vaccination
early in life and it lasts a lifetime. Why are animals any different? They apparently aren't. Check out http://critteradvocacy.org. Dog DHPPV and cat
PCT if given after six months of age are in all probability good for life. The American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA) should be commended because
they led the way. They felt vaccinations given after about six months were good for many, many years but had to compromise with the money hungry
hardliners and agree to ONLY three years officially. How's that for caring doctors? Even the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) reluctantly
admitted that there were no studies showing these vaccinations needed to be repeated on adult animals. Most vets still INSIST on doing them at least every
one to three years and for the life of the animal. This is not only apparently unnecessary but can be a health risk to your pet (and your pocket book).
Rabies and leukemia shots are serious cancer threats to cats. In California, they are classed as carcinogens. 22,000 cats are reported to die annually
from vaccination induced sarcomas. You are not benefiting your animal by over vaccinating!! <SNIP>
