It's me Svetlana.
Recently I found myself "sandwiched" between a vaccination scheduled recommended and almost imposed on me and Ptichka by our vet hospital and the recommendations by two experienced breeders.
I trust the breeder's common sense and a vaste knowledge of the subject and, while not questioning the competence of the doctor, I respect the breeders' more slow and gentle approach to vaccination of small dogs. As my Ptichka is a tiny Yorkie, and he does not leave the house except going to the vet and to visit friends and family with no other dogs, I would fully trust the breeders' judgement and caution.
I was already talked by the vet into giving ptichka intranasal Bordetella vaccine (which, according to the documents I list below, is not necessary), and stopped at the last moment them from giving him a rabies shot (which in small dogs has to be delayed as long as the state law permits).
Please review the documents below for vaccination schedule recommendations.

So long!
