CA message/Rabies vaccine and ill dogs

Basenji Health Issues & Questions
  • I am forwarding this to California animal lovers and hope each one of you will do the same. This is an important and simple bill that urgently needs to be passed. We have seen the need for an exemption several times at our rescue and have not been able to get one. This petition can do so much good for so many ailing and older dogs. Please take a moment to sign and forward it.

    Hi Guys:

    As you know, I very rarely send you mass e-mails. But this one is really important to me. For those of you who don?t have dogs or who don?t know about Rabies vaccines, they are usually good for life after they are given once in puppy hood. The vaccines have many severe side effects and can kill dogs who have some conditions. My Basenjis Echo, has this kind of condition. Some people pay each year to have them tested so, they can get a letter from their Vet and get an exemption from the vaccine. My city does not except these tests or letters. There is a bill that is up for vote that would make this a state law allowing exemption. Could you do me a huge favor and take a moment and sign this petition supporting this bill. It is really very important and can save the lives of many dogs who have conditions that make them at risk.

    Thanks so much,

    SAVE OUR PETS BY FILLING OUT THIS PETITION!

    Connie

    @zande Thank you, Sally. Oh yes, they can be really cheeky and smooth in the way they try to stretch the boundaries ;-) I am happy that it looks like I have found someone who will be happy to look after him even if he remains intact (many daycare businesses do not...and the one he was at up until says they will not take him again till he has been done - their loss!) - we will meet up with her in a week's time to see if all is doable :-) Take care, Kjersti & Cosmo

    Kipawa had this happen with one of his shots. It took about 2 months to go away, and started to really reduce in size with massage. The area is perfectly fine now - you'd never know anything odd had been there.

    Well, your precious ones only have to have a rabies booster once every 3 years! Please tell all your friends in Wichita about the ordinance change – the newspaper buried the announcement in other animal-related information, I'm sure many pet owners in the city don't have a clue that they no longer have to booster every year.
