I don't either. My Chihuahua has reactions to vaccines and yet they still insist on giving her them even when I have said no to them. When she has to have them I try to spread them out so she is less likely to have bad reactions. I've almost lost her 3 times now to vaccines. So I was really angry with the one that just went ahead and gave her a second vaccine after I said NO! So beware of that trick. My Chihuahua has had mucus and bad cough for 2 years now and they really have done nothing for either. In fact at first they treated her and me as if I was making it up, which really annoyed me. It wasn't until she sneezed snot all over the table that they went ahhhh ok she does have snot! She has also had reactions to some meds they have put her on like Cerenia... awful stuff. Immediately she started having rapid panting at night. She was only on it for two days. The reaction to it she had for at least 6 months. Every night with the panting, like she was really hot. Now she has an enlarged heart and they stuck her on meds for that and of course that just made her so much worse. So I took her off it after just a few days. She improved a bit but the conversation with the vet over the phone to see how she was doing was abominable. She said sorry and told me because she had a bit of distention in her stomach (which was new and I thought was a reaction to the meds) she told me it was cancer and wrote her off basically. Since I have nursed her back from death's door several times now, believe it or not but usually with puppy replacer milk when she couldn't eat, had diarrhea and vomiting and a bloated stomach at that time from reactions to rabies vaccine, I shall continue to try treating her myself with herbs and supplements, and the milk if necessary. She loves that milk and it is easy on the tummy and nutritious, when I couldn't g et her to eat or even drink water. She is already a lot better than she was a month ago but she still has the heart thing and the bad coughing and sneezing and mucus. I am migrating her over to freeze dried raw as she does not like actual raw food. I was giving some raw veggies and bananas and apples but she started piling on weight again, so cutting back, although still giving a little banana. I am also starting her on CoQ10. So THANK YOU DR JONES! I will not be having any more vaccines for this dog. Since her vets office wrote her off... I think I am done with them. We do have another younger dog, who does not have any of these issues, thank goodness. But I intend to try to keep my little older pup going until the inevitable. Just wish we clear the mucus and coughing up. While it seems we can lessen it to some degree, we don't seem able to actually get rid of it.
@@orionstarlift1587YOU are her advocate and THEY should not insist on giving or treating her for anything YOU do not approve. I would walk out the door so fast their heads would do more than spin.
When I was growing up rarely did our dogs ever get a vaccines(if they did, my dad or one of the men that he hunted wtfh would give them while they were giving the hunting dogs the select ones they have them.) nor were they spayed/neutered.) hey all lived to be old senior citizens and all died from being old. I never had a dog that had cancer, ever. They were never sick and the only thing we did was give them meds for parasites. Otherwise, they ate healthy, had good lives and no problems. No heartworm issues either. Only when I was older and had larger dogs instead of only Chihuahuas or Feist mix. My first was my husky I rescued as a puppy and took him you the vet and did what I thought was responsible, even though I had never had issues with my pets prior. Then, I got more rescues of so sizes etc etc and would spay/neuter, only rabies/5:1 vaccines. I had to treat for heartworms in my husky, all of my pitties have had allergies, three has died due to cancer (male osteosarcoma within 4yrs of being neutered) and two of my Chihuahua mix - mammary CA, female boxer lab had multiple skin type issues). I'm not going to over vaccinate my girl I have now, I'll do titers & natural as much by as possible, still looking into it. She had seizures from credelio, but has allergies ever since she had the first round of vax/getting spayed. I'm so over it. Even when we when giving our own vax to our animals 20 yrs ago we didnt run into the these issues. What is going on and how can we put a stop to it. I'm tired of losing my animals to things like this. The food for our pets is outrageously expensive if you buy what is said to be good food, but yet it's processed at such a high heat that it kills the nutrients and so many pets have allergies to what's in the kibble. Corn should not be the first ingredient in any canine or feline food. I feel like I'm preaching to a choir and I know you Ms Betty are aware of my frustrations. Omg. I can't afford to have rescue animals as I once did. Bc if you get what is recommended, you end up with pets that have medical issues, but if they get hurt, most vets want to know if they are UTD on their shots. Since my old country vet passed anyway. I'm glad he taught me a lot and I'm also a nurse, so combined I do pretty decent taking care of injuries to my animals. Dogs, cats, horses, and chickens. If the vet that takes care of my horses also took care of my normal ones as well. Lol😊
@@cardiacjunkie Full Fat or Whole, Plain Greek or regular Yogurt (2x a day with or on their food) is sooo good for them & they love it, even as a snack!! It helps their coat, skin & gut with prebiotic! It also helps with allergies too! 🤧 Coconut oil added to their food & topically heals MANY issues & their gut flora also!
Vets force their clients to get all kinds of shots in order to be seen. Criminal. FYI my last barn cat lived 23 years and only saw the vet once to get neutered.
@@I.C.Love.8that is criminal because if you live in an apartment building like I do ., my cat lives with me that's it she doesn't go anywhere it has no contact with anything
Dr. Jones is today's advocate for our pets, while Dr. John Campbell is today's advocate for people! Thanks to both of you for bringing us the truth with compassion!
For 30 years and with all my different dog breeds; Shit Zus, Chihuahuas, Huskies, Golden Retrievers I have given them the very first ones after adopting them, that is all !! I have also been cooking for them for as long. Main protein either wild salmon, beef or turkey with carrots, green beans, celery, yams, apples and blueberries. NEVER EVER given them kibble !! My two huskies had perfect health. One crossed the rainbow bridge at almost 20, the other at 18, PERFECT HEALTH throughout the years. They simply died from age. All my 8 chihuahuas lasted passed 17, one is still with me and she will be 22 next month !! PERFECT HEALTH also ! And lastly, my Golden retriever also still with me. She turned 17 back in March and now showing signs of age but still active and healthy. IF I ever listened to what vets want me to do with them, they would all have died at a premature age !! Even teeth cleaning I do at home daily. So at least in my case NO VACCINES after the original ones !!! NEVER !!!!!!!!
I applaud you.. I got a puppy recently, and took her for first shots. I was scheduled for the second set, and I had a gut feeling not to take her. I canceled. I also make my dogs food and am on a campaign to educate everyone about the dangers of kibble. I lost 2 to cancer and one to kidney failure, and I blame it on the kibble
I love that you cook for your dog. I HATE feeding my dog kibble, and try to use as little as possible. I would cook for them like you do, but I am not confident that my dog would then be getting enough of each vitamins/minerals/etc. that they need. I've heard of dogs getting sick because their owners cooked for them and they weren't getting enough of a balanced diet. How do I figure out what is needed in my dogs diet to give him everything he needs?
I refused to give my 9 lbs Chihuahua. The full Vax amount. Plus she is mostly an indoor dog in my arms at all times!! My vet did not force me to give a full rabies to my tiny dog after I asked the vet do all dogs get the same amount as a huge Saint Bernard, the answer was yes!! I REFUSED To do that because she only had 1 and has had health issues since. Skin issues and behavioral issues and bowl issues!! She's 11yrs old now and doing better since I stood up for her!! Be careful all ! My cat is not an outdoor cat and refused all Vax. She is doing GREAT!! THANK YOU for being honest with us all! I greatly appreciate your help and support in the care of .y animals!! Blessings to you Brother!!
Good for you! I stopped giving my dogs vaccines 15 years ago. Unfortunately, when purchasing a new puppy, the breeder has already given them their first poisonous shots. Before doing extensive research and actually interviewing veterinarians who agree/disagree with vaccines, I had given several of my dogs vaccines and they all suffered with horrible health issues. My first dog suffered a severe allergic reaction and had a seizure - the vet said it was a coincidence and had nothing to do with vaccines. Our second dog, suffered constant skin problems, ear infections and cancerous lumps. I finally refused vaccines for our third dog, and she NEVER had one skin problem or ear infection. She was a Golden Retriever who lived to be 12 and eventually succumbed to cancer. We now have another Golden who has NOT had any vaccines and he's as healthy as a horse. I hope the whole COVID fiasco woke people up to do their research and realize that these dangerous shots DO HAVE side effects. PLEASE, PLEASE do not give in to the lecture and warnings of death from your veterinarian - it could save your pets' life. Unfortunately, science cannot prove that injecting a foreign protein into an animal or even a human is safe AND effective. Vaccines are a big business and if your pet suffers an issue from one of them, you'll be guaranteed a lifetime of vet visits, followed with steroid injections, "special" expensive, horrible pet food and an empty wallet. Thank you for sharing your story!! :o)
Oh yeah. They claim they have to do all sorts of blood work beforehand ect. Do humans get bloodwork done before we get our teeth cleaned or put to sleep to get wisdom teeth pulled?? NO! goes to show how criminal they are!!
I am a groomer who does a lot of research and has a lot of dogs. I tell my clients all the time that their indoor dogs do not need all these shots. My dogs get good food and no extra additives- flea/tick, heart worm pills. They have aging symptoms but no diseases. I stop the parvo vaccines after around 6 yrs. I dont really want to get the rabies for exactly the reason that they are not dosed by weight but stuck by laws. I say. Do the research and take the lifestyle into account. Your dog will live longer❤❤❤🐾🐾🐾🐾
@@lauraquigley6403 I am mobile and the owner, I don't require anything unless I feel it is questionable circumstances and then probably would not be doing the dog! Find an independent groomer!
@@Barbara-te7xz I have insurance. I clean between dogs. I only do 1 dog at a time so I can be flexible. Not an environment where there are other dogs to spread disease.
Wow, a vet that tells the truth when it comes to vaccines. Thank you so much for putting this information out there. People need to know. God bless you and thank you again. You are wonderful vet.❤
Agreed! So many natural remedies, foods, essential oils, etc, to deal with issues, IF your pet experiences something. I have the same thought process regarding diet and vaccines with my dogs as I do myself. No vaccines, no medicines/pain killers (if at all possible), organic, non-GMO meats (raw for dogs), and every other meal for dogs I add ginger paste one meal one day, then tumeric one meal another day. Raw chicken drumsticks (entire bones, marrow, ligaments, skin, all).
Problem is titers are prohibitively expensive ( gee I wonder why - how do we get u in every yr if the titer shows protection for multiple years.) When Parvo vax was still new we noticed it was causing reproductive issues . Vets poohed poohed us but the Guide. Dog School in England did a study and proved it. Using titers they also showed w their stud dogs that once the initial puppy & 1 yr was given that 90% never needed a booster. Their suspicion for the 10% who did need the occasional booster was they had a possible auto immune problem or at a minimum a less robust immune system. I had my young male titered for both the rabies & Parvo and he had such high titer levels they estimated he would die long b4 it ran out. I have long practiced a very similar schedule to his recommendation but getting vets to use single dose vaccines ( impossible 2 get these days) and spread out over time. We are overwhelming the immune system w these 5,6,7 combo vaccines. I do adjust it if the dog is a competition dog exposed to lots of other animals or a working herding dog at risk from raccoons, foxes, rats etc but even with that all vaccines generally stop by 5 or 6. One girl who liked to kill possums was kept fully vaccinate on a 3 yr schedule. She did die at 12 while most of my dogs have been in the 14-17yr range ( German Shepherds). Stay away from dog parks. Not only are they a disaster waiting 2 happen, my county had a huge Lepto to outbreak over 2 years that ultimately was traced back to the dog parks.
You have a great vet. I checked with a vet to see about doing a titer and it was going to be $400. What does your vet charge? Most vets get angry if you dare question their recommendations.
You answered the question I was curious about. I was going to ask how healthy pets are today compared to like 70 years ago. At the very end you mentioned how chronic health problems are on the rise. Thank you for the upload. It's nice to see how recommendations look when profits aren't a factor.
Avoid the lyme one for sure. A month after my dog got the shot, she got lyme. Dr. guilted me into it. It was so expensive. When she got Lyme, I asked why? He told me right out that it don't work. So I asked him why he bullied me into it. He said ,"I dunno". Well....I know now!
I love your channel so much. I can't express enough how much it has helped me with my own pets, and how comforting it is. You truly love animals and your work for it shows ❤️ God bless this man.
Our chichuahua died a week after having vaccines. She was 15. When we confronted the vet, he said it was not possible from the vaccine. Thank you foe this information. This information is what we have been searching for. Thank you!
I am truly sorry for your loss. It's possible that your chihuahua did die of another cause, though. You didn't describe the symptoms here, but if it wasn't one of the known possible side effects, then the vet might have been quicker to say it wasn't related. Sometimes things just happen at the same time, and it's natural to want to identify the cause, but it's not always possible. I've been there. I truly commiserate with you on that
I’m so sorry to hear about the loss of your fur baby. I’m convinced that the vaccination’s that the State’s, Counties and Vetrinarian’s require pet owner’s to give animal’s are injurious and shorten our animal’s lives. I decided long ago to only give the 1st vaccine when having my pet neutered and spayed. I’m really happy that I watched this video & have read about other people and their pet’s lives.
I'm so sorry for your loss. I truly believe that elderly pets should stop getting vaccines -- get titers if necessary. They most likely have built up plenty of immunity.
@teaglelover How are u still able to see a vet if ur dog doesn't have the required vaccines? I don't want to give my dog anymore, I really do not like them, but she needs to see a vet still sometimes. So how do u go abt being able to still see a vet if u don't want ur dog to have all their vaccines?
@@sassysandie2865 i just say no, no ones gonna force me to do anything I don't want to do. i also know a vet who fakes me vaccine certificates for my dog for when I want to travel
My God, I love a Doctor who thinks for himself and doesn’t go with the overall recommendations of his industry. It would be nice to have more people doctors like this. Keep up the terrific work.❤
My dogs were vaxed for rabies last April, two weeks later they had a scuffled with a groundhog and had to get rabies vax again according to NJ law. By July my one HEALTHY dog died and by September my beagle had lymphomas. I’m a RN and for what my eyes have seen YES I really am anti vax. After getting Hepatitis B and varicella zoster vax I got encephalomyelitis and I’m debilitated. Felt my body getting incredibly weak for several years after those shots and then I was hit like a freight train. I now live in a state of feeling like I have a constant alcohol buzz. My boy finished chemo in May and we are fighting for him while being told he’s in remission. We are all being poisoned in every possible way.
Thank you Dr Jones. Seriously good advice. This weekend I met my dog's breeder at a fun dog show and she gave me the sad news that my girl's mum and grandmother both died from hemolytic anemia (spelling?) at just 9 years old. I read that this can be a side effect of over vaccination. It has put me off giving my dog any more vaccines now that she is 8 years old. Thank you so much for alerting us all so that we can make informed choices on how our pets will be treated in future.
Our beautiful dog Haley a 2 1/2 year old Catahoula Terrier mix. She was a very active, happy, loving, sweet dog. On June 17 she was given a Distemper shot. I thought I was protecting her. By July 1 she had stopped all activities and refused to eat. We thought she had a UTI but it was something far worse. An ultrasound revealed that her Spleen was enlarged. She was diagnosed with IMHA or Immune-mediated hemolytic anemia. IMHA causes white bloods cells to attack the Red bloods. Her Spleen was removed and she was put on steroids and immunosuppressants. Over the next 3 weeks we saw days of improvement but more days of decline and numerous vet trips. She started leaking extreme amounts of body fluid through her incision. Then her fat layer started slipping through the incision. An emergency vet visit and another surgery. She came home and did well for 2 days then developed an infection with a fever. Another emergency visit to the vet. I knew she was dying and she passed away several hours later. I wrote in detail to warn people to not to get vaccines for your pets. The only vaccine required is a Rabies and you don’t need one every 2 years. In Haley’s case she had the distemper vaccine but many other vaccines are just as dangerous. Our dog was healthy and happy before June 17th and by August 1st she was gone. Just say no to vaccines. Just so everyone knows I have researched Distemper vaccines and found Universty studies by Doctors highlighting Distemper shots causing IMHA. Vets also know about these side effects. Please share to warn pet owners.
@@susanwalker1305 thank you. Please share and spread the word. My vet admitted that my Haley didn’t need the vaccine and that the Veterinary world is all about money not about pets. I trusted my vet to give my pet the best care and this is the outcome.
So sorry for you. It is bad enough to loose your beloved dog when the time has come. But to go through all this and still lose them is soul destroying. You have so many emotions to go through. Plus the anger and ifs and whys. I have been through similar. And it makes me keep questioning and wondering. Xxxx
My 10yrs old miniature schnauzer was happy and healthy boy. He had vaccine likes yours, developed heart issues, then kidney, liver issues after taking all the medication prescribed by VET. went back with many visit and urgent care many time. He passed away after 4month. Our pain of loosing our baby and not be able to protect him last until now . Really be cautious with vaccine for your dog!
Pepe was my sweet little shitzu. He lived to be 19 years old. My vet had taken him off all immunizations due to his age when he was 17. He got immunized every 3 years. He took Revolution for heart worm protection, etc. My normal vet did not have Revolution at her office, so I went to my secondary vet because she had given Pepe Revolution before. She kept it there on the premise. Pepe was due for his rabies shot. The secondary vet refused to give the Revolution without Pepe getting rabies Shot. My primary vet sent a letter with me requesting vet by pass the rabies shot and give Pepe the Revolution . The secondary vet shot him up any way. He went down hill after that, couldn’t walk, see, eat, pain. He was so sick. One evening he convulsed and I thought he had died. I rushed him to the secondary vet because primary vet was closed. I was sure he was gone, but as I was crying over him he came back for one last hurrah. Vet said he had had a stroke and would be in a vegetative state. She advised me to put him to sleep. I knew he had already been gone only came back for me. As soon as she administered the shot,as I laid across him, loving him he went peacefully. Our family we were so proud of Pepe. So proud that he had lived to 19. We were rooting for him to make it to 20. The secondary vet should never have given the rabies shot due to his age as my primary vet had advised. We loved him so much, and were so proud of him. He would have been 20 on April 7 2024. Your comments have really helped me to decide not to immunize. My daughter is definitely against it for her dogs. I was still looking to get more information and found it today. Thank you so much. Sorry for your loss. I grieve with you.😂❤
the vet I fired gave my miniature dachshund a bunch of V at the same time and my dog got pancreatitis immediately after that. She lived in pain for about 4 years and I just put her to sleep two months ago. I argued with the vet at the time that it was too many V all at once or I should say she argued with me about it! I am heartbroken and now think back to the dogs my parents had that never had any V and were super healthy. Lesson learned
Mini Doxies are the top 3 most affected with side effect of vax. I am so sorry for your lost I feel your pain. I had 6 doxies, 2 passed away from vax injuries as well, it's horrible and criminal to do this to our furbabies. I no longer give anything at all to my dogs, I manage around it with exemptions and whatever I need to do to keep them safe. Also, now days there're plenty of non-invasive ways to keep them safe from bugs and viruses.
I am so sorry about your dog! I had something similar with my cat. The only thing I trust my Vet to do is bandage a wound and that is holding my breath.
My Aussie got a Lepto vaccine May 13 2024. She had an inflamatory response and 2 months later she is not completely recovered. I am done with vaccines!
I feel the shots gave my Aussie seizures. He had weekly seizures from 18 months to 5yrs when he went into status epilepticus & never came out. We had to put him down.😢
Try and find some homeopathic Thuja. My little dog had a bad reaction to the Lyme vax, and she wasn't right for 2 months after. I didn't think she would ever be the same, until I found the Thuja. The Adored Beast has an anti vacconosis product with Thuja in it. That was the last shot she ever received.
After the New England Journal of Medicine recently published that vaccines are not adequately studied for safety, I will not be taking anymore vaccines myself either.
My last 2 cats got all the recommended vaccines & both died from kidney disease. It broke my heart. Thanks for making me aware of the dangers; my vet sure didn’t. I’m doing things differently with my newly adopted kitten.
I made one of the biggest mistakes of my life by giving my full grown 4.2lb Maltese the Seresto collar for flea and ticks recommended by the vet. It caused brain necrosis, GME/NME and it killed him. I only found out after the fact that the dosage given to a 50lb dog is the same for a 3lb dog. We don’t do that for babies and adults so why do we do this for animals?!?
I’m so sorry for your loss. Years ago, my vet talked me into putting that flea and tick treatment on my pup and I swear she had what seemed to be neurological side effects. She recovered, but I never subjected her to that again.
I felt like if I didn’t give my dog every single available vaccinations I was not a good pet parent. Now I know that opposite is true. We need to be more knowledgeable and selective about vaccines and protect our fur babies! Thank you Dr.Jones!
I asked my vet about the dosage for my chaweenie as compared to a great dane. He had no answer. He just said it had to be done. Plus my little 12 pound dog is 13 years old. I think next year I'll take my chances and not get the shot.🤷♀️
My chiweenie and all Doxies zero shots of any kind. I have to get exemptions from my vet in FL but the one in Canada is all pro shots and says no side effect. Well I've lost 2 Doxies (from different background and age) from AIHA (Autoimmune hemolytic anemia) caused by vax as Doxies small breed (especially Doxies) are very much affected. I pretend I'm dumb and say ok but I never vaxxed any of my dogs after adoption. My last Chiweenie of 19 months no vax at all, got her from a neglectful person who never took her to the vet nor did the breeder hence pure. I want her to live 18yrs or more and that is the only way. I will go around the laws and make sure she doesn't get poisoned. 13yrs old shouldn't get any vax at all.
I hate giving my dog vaccinations but some of them are required for boarding. I refused my vet’s recommendation several years ago in giving her heartworm medication (poison). She’s an indoor dog. I feed her a raw diet and the vet says she’s in great shape and looks healthy. Didn’t tell the vet she’s on a raw diet. Thank you
my 10 pound dog had several rabies vaccines and showed almost no immunity on the expensive titer test. That vet was infuriated that I requested a titer test and perhaps they comprised the test because they were elated to tell me that my dog had almost no immunity. I believe she actually scored high for immunity.
I had to thank you for one of your past videos! After multiple medicated baths and antibiotics my bully still had recurring skin issues and hair loss. Started giving her rosemary and shes been find now for over a year!!! Thanks.
What dosage of rosemary did you give your dog and is it for a specific duration period...or for the rest of their life daily or weekly... what.? And is it rosemary oil.... Rosemary leaves do you give the dog
Got advice from a dear friend who was a vet tech for 35 yrs. Re. worker, once past puppy shots, use tsp food grade diatomaceous earth mixed with food, daily. Dog will never get worms.
How much for a shichon 4 month puppy and I time per day ? Do you give heart worm and tick / flea such as simpatico trio ? Thanks for sharing this info .
I give my own vaccines for my puppies. When I have a puppy under 5 lbs. I give 1/2 dose two weeks later 1/2 dose. I never had an issue. I follow your guidelines. Thank you so much❤
Great information. We must give some of the vaccines the first year so we can adopt abandoned animals . It's the law in Italy. After that nothing else again. All very healthy long living animals. No diseases. Thanks, Doc. Great subject. People really need to do their homework on this topic.🐶🐱🐕🐈⬛🐈 ❤
Thank you. I have two toy poodles 5yr old 12lbs and 3yr old 10lbs. They were getting vaccinated every year and taking simpatico 3 every month until last year. They are never at the kennel or groomer. We live in Chicago and mosquitoes are only out during the summer. I was wondering how to do a gland expression at home. Well lo and behold Dr Jones popped up during my search. I have been using all his remedies and understanding what needs to happen and gland expression hasn’t been necessary. I have been using the flea and tick spray and baths. I have so much appreciation for Dr Jones. Money saving info. I have even shared the information with my sister and niece that have pets.
My veterinarian said anal expression is not necessary unless your dog is showing signs of a problem because once you start expressing the glands, you have to keep having it done regularly.
I have always given my puppies their first initial vaccines then never again and my golden retriever lived 8 months before her 17th birthday. Also never give my dogs tap water.
I had my last baby girl (did) 15.5 yrs. She only had her first yr vaccines and one rabies booster at 9 yrs old because I needed a document. She was healthy and strong her whole life!
A few years ago when I got my new kitty, they stop giving the previous vaccine. I asked why and they said because it cause cancer in cats that's what my cat died of. The new one is purevax but it can cause kidney problems
I would like to ask the doctor. My cat was found emaciated near Boston abandon I guess. A Humane society got her and gave her all her shots. Who knows if she had all her shots previously and then was dumped or lost??? To me that's scary I read about purevax , it can cause problems with the kidneys. I know someone who has six cats. And most of the new ones ,he stopped taking them for vaccines. Two of them are 15 years old. I had a friend who died her 2 cats wete 17 years old, the only shots they ever had were the initial shots. And her friend took the two cats and they're still alive
@@aimeehertog8051 I heard this vet, and I believe him cuz he's a retired prominent vet. He said no vaccine for indoor cats, and she will have no contact with any other cat
Our 20 cats we have raised in 40 years never got sick and only had baby vaccines. All died of old age, most stay indoor anyhow. One died of breast cancer and she WAS fixed. Go figure. Miss you Pinny.
My two cats are now 3 years old. I refused to get them injected this year. My husband wasn't happy but I did show him another of your videos so I think that won the battle, even though he was reluctant. Thank you. They are both happy, healthy cats.
I wish I could find a vet like you here where I live. The vets here are pushing all the vaccines and testing without even asking. It cost me over 500 for things they did without even asking me when it was a well visit. That was 2018. Went to a different vet and to take care of a broken declaw it was 500. In 2020. I haven’t been back since. We got a new puppy a year and a half ago and I gave her the first shots myself. We have an acre of property that is all our dogs. They don’t go anywhere except in the car for a ride and home. Not around any other dogs. Thank you for trying to help us keep our animals healthy
I wish I could skip the yearly required Rabies vaccine. My vet does adjust for weight which is good. Can you talk about the Mercury in most Rabies vaccines and why most vets don't use the ones without Mercury?
Thank you for the information. We all want to do what's best for our pets and now, more than ever, we have to self-educate to choose what we feel is best.
Thank you so much for this educational video. Thank you for caring for our animals instead of being a greedy doctor. I saw this video right before my dogs vet visit and i will refuse all these vaccines as he was vaccinated already 4 years ago. ❤❤❤
I take my crew to a farm vet. They require an update rabies vaccine in order to have a vet visit. Even after I said not to vaccinate one cat who is six pounds and has a sensitive stomach and demeanor. She got so sick. Smelled like kidney disease for a week. Thank goodness snapped outta this and didn’t die. I said she gets zero or she will go without a vet ever. Now, they allow her to get check ups as needed. No shots I only do rabies as demanded by law for the others due to travel with them. Otherwise, no shot beyond kitten. For the dog and if the cats travel give flea tick treatment. Been working on homemade type brews instead as a try to get away from this need. My fur friends if cats live to nineteen. We haven’t breeched twenty yet. With experience of minimizing shots find love, a nutritious diet, and enjoyable activities seem to enhance their long lives. Great info, as usual. Thank you ❤
California here Our family dog got lost a couple days ago. I found him at the animal shelter. They told me i couldnt take him home untill his vaccines were given. I got charged 145.
Thank you! We are doing titer every few years to check for his immunity and the recent one at age 3 is good! Our pup had terrible side effects so we will it be doing that to him ever again.
My dog got the worst case of kennel cough after getting the Bordatello vaccine required to be kenneled. He also got a case when it was required for training class. We won’t ever do that again…..
I am not sure where you reside but seriously I find these “ laws “ aren’t monitored at all ! It’s just a scare tactic. I have had dogs my entire life ( I,m 67 ) and Never ever have I been approached Re guarding any of my dogs vaccines or city tags etc NOTHING. I’ve lived in three provinces and one Territory. Now if you find yourself having to cross the border that could be another story, we have crossed into Alaska from the Yukon also BC into Washington State many times with our Corgi and was never asked but that was several years ago . I hope this helps .
If you have a printer/copy machine you can update your own vaccinations very simply and no one is the wiser. Sometimes ya just got to do what you need to keep the littles safe.
My dog just passed the three year mark since his most recent rabies vaccine. I told my vet that I would pass on giving my dog an updated shot, and he scolded me about being in violation of state law.
Yeah, I get that too. I just ignore them. If they continue I don't go back. It's all about the money with those vets. They are never forthcoming with potential risks and side effects.
I don’t trust much of veterinary science; neither do I trust much of human medical science. Too much of it is goosed by big pharma.
Dr Jones is the real deal, but most others o completely agree.
Too true
💯
I don't either. My Chihuahua has reactions to vaccines and yet they still insist on giving her them even when I have said no to them. When she has to have them I try to spread them out so she is less likely to have bad reactions. I've almost lost her 3 times now to vaccines. So I was really angry with the one that just went ahead and gave her a second vaccine after I said NO! So beware of that trick.
My Chihuahua has had mucus and bad cough for 2 years now and they really have done nothing for either. In fact at first they treated her and me as if I was making it up, which really annoyed me. It wasn't until she sneezed snot all over the table that they went ahhhh ok she does have snot!
She has also had reactions to some meds they have put her on like Cerenia... awful stuff. Immediately she started having rapid panting at night. She was only on it for two days. The reaction to it she had for at least 6 months. Every night with the panting, like she was really hot.
Now she has an enlarged heart and they stuck her on meds for that and of course that just made her so much worse. So I took her off it after just a few days. She improved a bit but the conversation with the vet over the phone to see how she was doing was abominable. She said sorry and told me because she had a bit of distention in her stomach (which was new and I thought was a reaction to the meds) she told me it was cancer and wrote her off basically.
Since I have nursed her back from death's door several times now, believe it or not but usually with puppy replacer milk when she couldn't eat, had diarrhea and vomiting and a bloated stomach at that time from reactions to rabies vaccine, I shall continue to try treating her myself with herbs and supplements, and the milk if necessary. She loves that milk and it is easy on the tummy and nutritious, when I couldn't g et her to eat or even drink water. She is already a lot better than she was a month ago but she still has the heart thing and the bad coughing and sneezing and mucus. I am migrating her over to freeze dried raw as she does not like actual raw food. I was giving some raw veggies and bananas and apples but she started piling on weight again, so cutting back, although still giving a little banana. I am also starting her on CoQ10.
So THANK YOU DR JONES! I will not be having any more vaccines for this dog. Since her vets office wrote her off... I think I am done with them. We do have another younger dog, who does not have any of these issues, thank goodness. But I intend to try to keep my little older pup going until the inevitable. Just wish we clear the mucus and coughing up. While it seems we can lessen it to some degree, we don't seem able to actually get rid of it.
@@orionstarlift1587YOU are her advocate and THEY should not insist on giving or treating her for anything YOU do not approve. I would walk out the door so fast their heads would do more than spin.
I find that the least vaccines you give, the longer they live. Post Covid, I’m a little skeptical with the newer ones.
With VERY GOOD cause!! Good job!! 😊
When I was growing up rarely did our dogs ever get a vaccines(if they did, my dad or one of the men that he hunted wtfh would give them while they were giving the hunting dogs the select ones they have them.) nor were they spayed/neutered.) hey all lived to be old senior citizens and all died from being old. I never had a dog that had cancer, ever. They were never sick and the only thing we did was give them meds for parasites. Otherwise, they ate healthy, had good lives and no problems. No heartworm issues either. Only when I was older and had larger dogs instead of only Chihuahuas or Feist mix. My first was my husky I rescued as a puppy and took him you the vet and did what I thought was responsible, even though I had never had issues with my pets prior. Then, I got more rescues of so sizes etc etc and would spay/neuter, only rabies/5:1 vaccines. I had to treat for heartworms in my husky, all of my pitties have had allergies, three has died due to cancer (male osteosarcoma within 4yrs of being neutered) and two of my Chihuahua mix - mammary CA, female boxer lab had multiple skin type issues). I'm not going to over vaccinate my girl I have now, I'll do titers & natural as much by as possible, still looking into it. She had seizures from credelio, but has allergies ever since she had the first round of vax/getting spayed. I'm so over it. Even when we when giving our own vax to our animals 20 yrs ago we didnt run into the these issues. What is going on and how can we put a stop to it. I'm tired of losing my animals to things like this. The food for our pets is outrageously expensive if you buy what is said to be good food, but yet it's processed at such a high heat that it kills the nutrients and so many pets have allergies to what's in the kibble. Corn should not be the first ingredient in any canine or feline food. I feel like I'm preaching to a choir and I know you Ms Betty are aware of my frustrations. Omg. I can't afford to have rescue animals as I once did. Bc if you get what is recommended, you end up with pets that have medical issues, but if they get hurt, most vets want to know if they are UTD on their shots. Since my old country vet passed anyway. I'm glad he taught me a lot and I'm also a nurse, so combined I do pretty decent taking care of injuries to my animals. Dogs, cats, horses, and chickens. If the vet that takes care of my horses also took care of my normal ones as well. Lol😊
@@cardiacjunkie Full Fat or Whole, Plain Greek or regular Yogurt (2x a day with or on their food) is sooo good for them & they love it, even as a snack!! It helps their coat, skin & gut with prebiotic! It also helps with allergies too! 🤧 Coconut oil added to their food & topically heals MANY issues & their gut flora also!
You should *never* give them any, period. There are *no* "good ones."
My idee it is aal about the money
My dog lived to 18yrs 3mths never had a vax
Praise the Lord Jesus Christ
Mines 17 years old and counting 🥰🙌🏼
You got lucky, OR never took your dog around other dogs.
It would help us to know the breed. It is important.
Same here
Vets force their clients to get all kinds of shots in order to be seen. Criminal. FYI my last barn cat lived 23 years and only saw the vet once to get neutered.
Crimes against Humanity and Furbabies.
Vaccines almost killed my cat. She had to be in intensive care for a week after she got jabbed.
We should sue to together
Nobody forces anyone…it is still a choice.
@@I.C.Love.8that is criminal because if you live in an apartment building like I do ., my cat lives with me that's it she doesn't go anywhere it has no contact with anything

@@Miss.kittty Ha, he isn't a doc but an actor. Here you have it , the honesty.
For 30 years and with all my different dog breeds; Shit Zus, Chihuahuas, Huskies, Golden Retrievers I have given them the very first ones after adopting them, that is all !! I have also been cooking for them for as long. Main protein either wild salmon, beef or turkey with carrots, green beans, celery, yams, apples and blueberries. NEVER EVER given them kibble !! My two huskies had perfect health. One crossed the rainbow bridge at almost 20, the other at 18, PERFECT HEALTH throughout the years. They simply died from age. All my 8 chihuahuas lasted passed 17, one is still with me and she will be 22 next month !! PERFECT HEALTH also ! And lastly, my Golden retriever also still with me. She turned 17 back in March and now showing signs of age but still active and healthy. IF I ever listened to what vets want me to do with them, they would all have died at a premature age !! Even teeth cleaning I do at home daily. So at least in my case NO VACCINES after the original ones !!! NEVER !!!!!!!!
Love!
Wow, your dog's are living like dogs used to 30 years ago
What about Rabies ? Do you only give that one once ?
I applaud you.. I got a puppy recently, and took her for first shots. I was scheduled for the second set, and I had a gut feeling not to take her. I canceled. I also make my dogs food and am on a campaign to educate everyone about the dangers of kibble. I lost 2 to cancer and one to kidney failure, and I blame it on the kibble
I love that you cook for your dog. I HATE feeding my dog kibble, and try to use as little as possible. I would cook for them like you do, but I am not confident that my dog would then be getting enough of each vitamins/minerals/etc. that they need. I've heard of dogs getting sick because their owners cooked for them and they weren't getting enough of a balanced diet. How do I figure out what is needed in my dogs diet to give him everything he needs?
I refused to give my 9 lbs Chihuahua. The full Vax amount. Plus she is mostly an indoor dog in my arms at all times!! My vet did not force me to give a full rabies to my tiny dog after I asked the vet do all dogs get the same amount as a huge Saint Bernard, the answer was yes!! I REFUSED To do that because she only had 1 and has had health issues since. Skin issues and behavioral issues and bowl issues!! She's 11yrs old now and doing better since I stood up for her!! Be careful all ! My cat is not an outdoor cat and refused all Vax. She is doing GREAT!! THANK YOU for being honest with us all! I greatly appreciate your help and support in the care of .y animals!! Blessings to you Brother!!
Amen & You are absolutely correct!!
Doesn't matter if the pet is indoors or outdoors: NEVER Vaccinate ●
Good for you! I stopped giving my dogs vaccines 15 years ago. Unfortunately, when purchasing a new puppy, the breeder has already given them their first poisonous shots. Before doing extensive research and actually interviewing veterinarians who agree/disagree with vaccines, I had given several of my dogs vaccines and they all suffered with horrible health issues. My first dog suffered a severe allergic reaction and had a seizure - the vet said it was a coincidence and had nothing to do with vaccines. Our second dog, suffered constant skin problems, ear infections and cancerous lumps. I finally refused vaccines for our third dog, and she NEVER had one skin problem or ear infection. She was a Golden Retriever who lived to be 12 and eventually succumbed to cancer. We now have another Golden who has NOT had any vaccines and he's as healthy as a horse. I hope the whole COVID fiasco woke people up to do their research and realize that these dangerous shots DO HAVE side effects. PLEASE, PLEASE do not give in to the lecture and warnings of death from your veterinarian - it could save your pets' life. Unfortunately, science cannot prove that injecting a foreign protein into an animal or even a human is safe AND effective. Vaccines are a big business and if your pet suffers an issue from one of them, you'll be guaranteed a lifetime of vet visits, followed with steroid injections, "special" expensive, horrible pet food and an empty wallet. Thank you for sharing your story!! :o)
You should have refused to let them be stuck *at all.*

I am a groomer who does a lot of research and has a lot of dogs. I tell my clients all the time that their indoor dogs do not need all these shots.
My dogs get good food and no extra additives- flea/tick, heart worm pills. They have aging symptoms but no diseases.
I stop the parvo vaccines after around 6 yrs. I dont really want to get the rabies for exactly the reason that they are not dosed by weight but stuck by laws.

Ha , he is saying it now when everybody leave earned the hard way. And he's not a doc , He's an actor. Look him up.
Avoid all
Agreed! So many natural remedies, foods, essential oils, etc, to deal with issues, IF your pet experiences something. I have the same thought process regarding diet and vaccines with my dogs as I do myself. No vaccines, no medicines/pain killers (if at all possible), organic, non-GMO meats (raw for dogs), and every other meal for dogs I add ginger paste one meal one day, then tumeric one meal another day. Raw chicken drumsticks (entire bones, marrow, ligaments, skin, all).
My vet uses a holistic approach and does titers to check their immunity, which i love so we only vaccinate as needed
Where's your vet
That's awesome. My vet says they won't do titers for cats and rabies vaccine.
Problem is titers are prohibitively expensive ( gee I wonder why - how do we get u in every yr if the titer shows protection for multiple years.) When Parvo vax was still new we noticed it was causing reproductive issues . Vets poohed poohed us but the Guide. Dog School in England did a study and proved it. Using titers they also showed w their stud dogs that once the initial puppy & 1 yr was given that 90% never needed a booster. Their suspicion for the 10% who did need the occasional booster was they had a possible auto immune problem or at a minimum a less robust immune system.
I had my young male titered for both the rabies & Parvo and he had such high titer levels they estimated he would die long b4 it ran out.
I have long practiced a very similar schedule to his recommendation but getting vets to use single dose vaccines ( impossible 2 get these days) and spread out over time. We are overwhelming the immune system w these 5,6,7 combo vaccines. I do adjust it if the dog is a competition dog exposed to lots of other animals or a working herding dog at risk from raccoons, foxes, rats etc but even with that all vaccines generally stop by 5 or 6. One girl who liked to kill possums was kept fully vaccinate on a 3 yr schedule. She did die at 12 while most of my dogs have been in the 14-17yr range ( German Shepherds).
Stay away from dog parks. Not only are they a disaster waiting 2 happen, my county had a huge Lepto to outbreak over 2 years that ultimately was traced back to the dog parks.
You have a great vet. I checked with a vet to see about doing a titer and it was going to be $400. What does your vet charge?
Most vets get angry if you dare question their recommendations.
Depends on what state one lives in.
You answered the question I was curious about. I was going to ask how healthy pets are today compared to like 70 years ago. At the very end you mentioned how chronic health problems are on the rise. Thank you for the upload. It's nice to see how recommendations look when profits aren't a factor.
Avoid the lyme one for sure. A month after my dog got the shot, she got lyme. Dr. guilted me into it. It was so expensive. When she got Lyme, I asked why? He told me right out that it don't work. So I asked him why he bullied me into it. He said ,"I dunno". Well....I know now!
They get kickbacks.
Yep a lot of them really are bullies! Thankfully mine isn't. I'm very blessed I know! ❤

He's not a doctor, he is an actor which in today's world makes no difference.
Our chichuahua died a week after having vaccines. She was 15. When we confronted the vet, he said it was not possible from the vaccine. Thank you foe this information. This information is what we have been searching for. Thank you!
I am truly sorry for your loss. It's possible that your chihuahua did die of another cause, though. You didn't describe the symptoms here, but if it wasn't one of the known possible side effects, then the vet might have been quicker to say it wasn't related. Sometimes things just happen at the same time, and it's natural to want to identify the cause, but it's not always possible. I've been there. I truly commiserate with you on that
I’m so sorry to hear about the loss of your fur baby. I’m convinced that the vaccination’s that the State’s, Counties and Vetrinarian’s require pet owner’s to give animal’s are injurious and shorten our animal’s lives. I decided long ago to only give the 1st vaccine when having my pet neutered and spayed.
I’m really happy that I watched this video & have read about other people and their pet’s lives.
I'm so sorry for your loss. I truly believe that elderly pets should stop getting vaccines -- get titers if necessary. They most likely have built up plenty of immunity.
@teaglelover How are u still able to see a vet if ur dog doesn't have the required vaccines? I don't want to give my dog anymore, I really do not like them, but she needs to see a vet still sometimes. So how do u go abt being able to still see a vet if u don't want ur dog to have all their vaccines?

My dogs were vaxed for rabies last April, two weeks later they had a scuffled with a groundhog and had to get rabies vax again according to NJ law. By July my one HEALTHY dog died and by September my beagle had lymphomas. I’m a RN and for what my eyes have seen YES I really am anti vax. After getting Hepatitis B and varicella zoster vax I got encephalomyelitis and I’m debilitated. Felt my body getting incredibly weak for several years after those shots and then I was hit like a freight train. I now live in a state of feeling like I have a constant alcohol buzz. My boy finished chemo in May and we are fighting for him while being told he’s in remission. We are all being poisoned in every possible way.
So sorry! Its horrible all the poisons they push.

Our beautiful dog Haley a 2 1/2 year old Catahoula Terrier mix. She was a very active, happy, loving, sweet dog. On June 17 she was given a Distemper shot. I thought I was protecting her. By July 1 she had stopped all activities and refused to eat. We thought she had a UTI but it was something far worse. An ultrasound revealed that her Spleen was enlarged. She was diagnosed with IMHA or Immune-mediated hemolytic anemia. IMHA causes white bloods cells to attack the Red bloods. Her Spleen was removed and she was put on steroids and immunosuppressants. Over the next 3 weeks we saw days of improvement but more days of decline and numerous vet trips. She started leaking extreme amounts of body fluid through her incision. Then her fat layer started slipping through the incision. An emergency vet visit and another surgery. She came home and did well for 2 days then developed an infection with a fever. Another emergency visit to the vet. I knew she was dying and she passed away several hours later. I wrote in detail to warn people to not to get vaccines for your pets. The only vaccine required is a Rabies and you don’t need one every 2 years. In Haley’s case she had the distemper vaccine but many other vaccines are just as dangerous. Our dog was healthy and happy before June 17th and by August 1st she was gone. Just say no to vaccines. Just so everyone knows I have researched Distemper vaccines and found Universty studies by Doctors highlighting Distemper shots causing IMHA. Vets also know about these side effects. Please share to warn pet owners.
SO VERY SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS.😢THAT'S TERRIBLE WHAT YOUR DOG & YOU HAD TO GO THRU. THANKS FOR SHARING! TAKE CARE.
@@susanwalker1305 thank you. Please share and spread the word. My vet admitted that my Haley didn’t need the vaccine and that the Veterinary world is all about money not about pets. I trusted my vet to give my pet the best care and this is the outcome.

Pepe was my sweet little shitzu. He lived to be 19 years old. My vet had taken him off all immunizations due to his age when he was 17. He got immunized every 3 years. He took Revolution for heart worm protection, etc. My normal vet did not have Revolution at her office, so I went to my secondary vet because she had given Pepe Revolution before. She kept it there on the premise. Pepe was due for his rabies shot. The secondary vet refused to give the Revolution without Pepe getting rabies Shot. My primary vet sent a letter with me requesting vet by pass the rabies shot and give Pepe the Revolution . The secondary vet shot him up any way. He went down hill after that, couldn’t walk, see, eat, pain. He was so sick. One evening he convulsed and I thought he had died. I rushed him to the secondary vet because primary vet was closed. I was sure he was gone, but as I was crying over him he came back for one last hurrah. Vet said he had had a stroke and would be in a vegetative state. She advised me to put him to sleep. I knew he had already been gone only came back for me. As soon as she administered the shot,as I laid across him, loving him he went peacefully. Our family we were so proud of Pepe. So proud that he had lived to 19. We were rooting for him to make it to 20. The secondary vet should never have given the rabies shot due to his age as my primary vet had advised. We loved him so much, and were so proud of him. He would have been 20 on April 7 2024. Your comments have really helped me to decide not to immunize. My daughter is definitely against it for her dogs. I was still looking to get more information and found it today. Thank you so much. Sorry for your loss. I grieve with you.😂❤
the vet I fired gave my miniature dachshund a bunch of V at the same time and my dog got pancreatitis immediately after that. She lived in pain for about 4 years and I just put her to sleep two months ago. I argued with the vet at the time that it was too many V all at once or I should say she argued with me about it! I am heartbroken and now think back to the dogs my parents had that never had any V and were super healthy. Lesson learned
Mini Doxies are the top 3 most affected with side effect of vax. I am so sorry for your lost I feel your pain. I had 6 doxies, 2 passed away from vax injuries as well, it's horrible and criminal to do this to our furbabies. I no longer give anything at all to my dogs, I manage around it with exemptions and whatever I need to do to keep them safe. Also, now days there're plenty of non-invasive ways to keep them safe from bugs and viruses.

I can't even find that article anymore.
My last 2 cats got all the recommended vaccines & both died from kidney disease. It broke my heart. Thanks for making me aware of the dangers; my vet sure didn’t. I’m doing things differently with my newly adopted kitten.
I made one of the biggest mistakes of my life by giving my full grown 4.2lb Maltese the Seresto collar for flea and ticks recommended by the vet. It caused brain necrosis, GME/NME and it killed him. I only found out after the fact that the dosage given to a 50lb dog is the same for a 3lb dog. We don’t do that for babies and adults so why do we do this for animals?!?
Dogs are so precious and it seems most vets only care about making a buck.
I’m so sorry for your loss. Years ago, my vet talked me into putting that flea and tick treatment on my pup and I swear she had what seemed to be neurological side effects. She recovered, but I never subjected her to that again.
Excellent video, thank you. Wish I could find a vet like you. The vets push and push all the vaccines.
It's all about the money to the quacks. They charge $80 dollars for a $1 dollar dose of rabies poison.
So grateful to you. Just ordered your big book from Amazon. Very few people with your ethics and integrity.
Thank you! Appreciate that big time!
It is getting harder and harder to trust these Vets!
I felt like if I didn’t give my dog every single available vaccinations I was not a good pet parent. Now I know that opposite is true. We need to be more knowledgeable and selective about vaccines and protect our fur babies! Thank you Dr.Jones!
I asked my vet about the dosage for my chaweenie as compared to a great dane. He had no answer. He just said it had to be done. Plus my little 12 pound dog is 13 years old. I think next year I'll take my chances and not get the shot.🤷♀️
@@deannapyszka1 antibodies after puppy vaccination last up to 15 years
My chiweenie and all Doxies zero shots of any kind. I have to get exemptions from my vet in FL but the one in Canada is all pro shots and says no side effect. Well I've lost 2 Doxies (from different background and age) from AIHA (Autoimmune hemolytic anemia) caused by vax as Doxies small breed (especially Doxies) are very much affected. I pretend I'm dumb and say ok but I never vaxxed any of my dogs after adoption. My last Chiweenie of 19 months no vax at all, got her from a neglectful person who never took her to the vet nor did the breeder hence pure. I want her to live 18yrs or more and that is the only way. I will go around the laws and make sure she doesn't get poisoned. 13yrs old shouldn't get any vax at all.
You're smart!! ❤
Your vet should be backing off vaccines with a senior dog. If not, you should insist.
I hate giving my dog vaccinations but some of them are required for boarding. I refused my vet’s recommendation several years ago in giving her heartworm medication (poison). She’s an indoor dog. I feed her a raw diet and the vet says she’s in great shape and looks healthy. Didn’t tell the vet she’s on a raw diet. Thank you
My vet used to let me have my dogs tested for their immunity. Didn't cost much, now the tests cost an insane amount.
Avoid them ALL
Don't be stupid.
@@TheVid54 as my cats and dogs live over 20 years vax free, k
Even rabies?
Stupidity is vaxed dogs! Vaxed now, cancer later! Just like people!
Are you crazy have you seen dogs die and suffer from parvo 😡 Please dont get animals they are clearly not safe with you.
I totally agree, but was surprised you didn't mention titer testing.
my 10 pound dog had several rabies vaccines and showed almost no immunity on the expensive titer test. That vet was infuriated that I requested a titer test and perhaps they comprised the test because they were elated to tell me that my dog had almost no immunity. I believe she actually scored high for immunity.
@@blenderbenderguy if you have an older dog, that is mainly at home or in your yard.....you don't need them & they have the antibodies for years!!
Two cats, both lived to almost 20 and I never gave them one vaccine when in my care. They were both indoors. Just sharing my experience 😉
I’m glad that your experience was and still is a pleasant one!! ❤
I had to thank you for one of your past videos! After multiple medicated baths and antibiotics my bully still had recurring skin issues and hair loss. Started giving her rosemary and shes been find now for over a year!!! Thanks.
What dosage of rosemary did you give your dog and is it for a specific duration period...or for the rest of their life daily or weekly... what.? And is it rosemary oil.... Rosemary leaves do you give the dog
Got advice from a dear friend who was a vet tech for 35 yrs. Re. worker, once past puppy shots, use tsp food grade diatomaceous earth mixed with food, daily. Dog will never get worms.
@@edbrit4893 works on fleas too, put on their fur
I give my dogs a 1/4 tsp of diatomaceous earth daily mixed in cottage cheese and they do not get fleas or worms.
How much for a shichon 4 month puppy and I time per day ? Do you give heart worm and tick / flea such as simpatico trio ? Thanks for sharing this info .
@@novampires223 Do you give your dogs heart worm and flea / tick meds also ? Thanks
@@judyandhuggins that’s why she gives the Diatomaceous Earth treatment so she don’t have to use the poisons you are asking about.
I had my 11 year old GSP titer tested, she had enough in her system to last another 3 years minimum.
The big problem is these idiots in whatever state you live in they demand a rabies shot every year
I give my own vaccines for my puppies. When I have a puppy under 5 lbs. I give 1/2 dose two weeks later 1/2 dose.
I never had an issue. I follow your guidelines.
Thank you so much❤
Where do you buy your vaccines? I'm having issues finding a vet who carries just the parvo and distemper without the other added stuff
Great information. We must give some of the vaccines the first year so we can adopt abandoned animals . It's the law in Italy. After that nothing else again. All very healthy long living animals. No diseases. Thanks, Doc. Great subject. People really need to do their homework on this topic.🐶🐱🐕🐈⬛🐈 ❤
Thank You Dr. Jones. So much "common sense" in a world lacking it! Thanks for standing up for our pets! God Bless!
None for me dog Pixie.
Thank you, Dr. Jones for all the help you give. I do appreciate it all be blessed and God bless your family.❤❤❤
Thank you. I have two toy poodles 5yr old 12lbs and 3yr old 10lbs. They were getting vaccinated every year and taking simpatico 3 every month until last year. They are never at the kennel or groomer. We live in Chicago and mosquitoes are only out during the summer. I was wondering how to do a gland expression at home. Well lo and behold Dr Jones popped up during my search. I have been using all his remedies and understanding what needs to happen and gland expression hasn’t been necessary. I have been using the flea and tick spray and baths. I have so much appreciation for Dr Jones. Money saving info. I have even shared the information with my sister and niece that have pets.
12 lb. is not a Toy Poodle. It is a miniature. 10 lbs. is max for a Toy according to AKC.
@@DD-ee2nv according to the vet and dna test they are toys. Miniature poodles are the middle sized…look it up!! I did!
My veterinarian said anal expression is not necessary unless your dog is showing signs of a problem because once you start expressing the glands, you have to keep having it done regularly.
@@lelahsmith7467 that’s what Dr Jones said. As a result of watching Dr Jones on UA-cam I realized I was spending a lot of unnecessary money.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for all your wonderful information you shared to pet owner like me, Dr. Jones!!!!!!
Thank you so much for sharing. May Life's blessing forever flow to you and through you
My feline Salem just died at 9 years old of lymphoma...on the oncologist report...vaccine injury! Giving up all vaccines for my pets!
I am so sorry this happened to Salem and you. 😕
Thank you sir for honesty. My intuition thank you as well for the vindication
I have always given my puppies their first initial vaccines then never again and my golden retriever lived 8 months before her 17th birthday. Also never give my dogs tap water.
What water then?
@DylanHamilton-lh4rk
Purified with minerals kept in or added
@angieobes9835 minerals are worse water due of salt
Absolutely 💯
I don’t drink from the tap and either does my dog. He still likes girls.
I had my last baby girl (did) 15.5 yrs. She only had her first yr vaccines and one rabies booster at 9 yrs old because I needed a document.
She was healthy and strong her whole life!
yearly vaccine of Rabies gave my cat a cancer and he died and it was horrible death. I refuse to give Rabies to my indoor cats yearly ever again
How do you know
Same thing happened to my Jenny Cat almost 2 years ago. Refuse the rabies for my new indoor cat.
A few years ago when I got my new kitty, they stop giving the previous vaccine. I asked why and they said because it cause cancer in cats that's what my cat died of. The new one is purevax but it can cause kidney problems
I would like to ask the doctor. My cat was found emaciated near Boston abandon I guess. A Humane society got her and gave her all her shots. Who knows if she had all her shots previously and then was dumped or lost??? To me that's scary I read about purevax , it can cause problems with the kidneys. I know someone who has six cats. And most of the new ones ,he stopped taking them for vaccines. Two of them are 15 years old. I had a friend who died her 2 cats wete 17 years old, the only shots they ever had were the initial shots. And her friend took the two cats and they're still alive
@@aimeehertog8051 I heard this vet, and I believe him cuz he's a retired prominent vet.
He said no vaccine for indoor cats, and she will have no contact with any other cat
Voice of reason! Thank you
Our 20 cats we have raised in 40 years never got sick and only had baby vaccines. All died of old age, most stay indoor anyhow. One died of breast cancer and she WAS fixed. Go figure. Miss you Pinny.
My two cats are now 3 years old. I refused to get them injected this year. My husband wasn't happy but I did show him another of your videos so I think that won the battle, even though he was reluctant. Thank you. They are both happy, healthy cats.
Thank you for all this valuable advice! I need to know all this about vacines!
Thanks! Have a coffee on me! You’ve helped me so much, love your dog products/vits.
Thank you Dr. Jones...
Great info tnx for sharing. Stopped vaxing my elderly dog in 2020 after getting very ill. Never ever
My dog is 14 years old, never vaccinated her. She runs aroundn like a puppy!
I wish more
Vets were like you.
That’s really kind of you to say! I’m just doing my best to help.❤️
outdoor rescue kitty not vaxed, fully grown 9 years old now. Only has ear problems head shaking. What to do? Thank you ❤
Thanks!
Thank you for your support!
Thank you. I am passing this video on to others.
What about allergy shots
I wish I could find a vet like you here where I live. The vets here are pushing all the vaccines and testing without even asking. It cost me over 500 for things they did without even asking me when it was a well visit. That was 2018. Went to a different vet and to take care of a broken declaw it was 500. In 2020. I haven’t been back since. We got a new puppy a year and a half ago and I gave her the first shots myself. We have an acre of property that is all our dogs. They don’t go anywhere except in the car for a ride and home. Not around any other dogs. Thank you for trying to help us keep our animals healthy
Thank you Dr. Jones 💐
I wish I could skip the yearly required Rabies vaccine. My vet does adjust for weight which is good. Can you talk about the Mercury in most Rabies vaccines and why most vets don't use the ones without Mercury?
Thank you for the information. We all want to do what's best for our pets and now, more than ever, we have to self-educate to choose what we feel is best.
Why don't we do titer tests before vaccinating?
Agreed! What sucks is that my regular vet doesn’t offer a tither test.
I need to find a holistic vet.
They make tiger test so expensive that most people choose to do another vaccine. Evil is very smart.
"Convenience"
The so called mainstream vets are like mainstream alopathic doctors.....it's all about the money and not caring about the truth.
Thanks 🙌Dr. JONES
Thank you so much for this educational video. Thank you for caring for our animals instead of being a greedy doctor. I saw this video right before my dogs vet visit and i will refuse all these vaccines as he was vaccinated already 4 years ago. ❤❤❤
I take my crew to a farm vet. They require an update rabies vaccine in order to have a vet visit. Even after I said not to vaccinate one cat who is six pounds and has a sensitive stomach and demeanor. She got so sick. Smelled like kidney disease for a week. Thank goodness snapped outta this and didn’t die. I said she gets zero or she will go without a vet ever. Now, they allow her to get check ups as needed. No shots
I only do rabies as demanded by law for the others due to travel with them. Otherwise, no shot beyond kitten.
For the dog and if the cats travel give flea tick treatment. Been working on homemade type brews instead as a try to get away from this need.
My fur friends if cats live to nineteen. We haven’t breeched twenty yet. With experience of minimizing shots find love, a nutritious diet, and enjoyable activities seem to enhance their long lives.
Great info, as usual. Thank you ❤
Thank you so much Dr. John, I appreciate your help!!❤
California here
Our family dog got lost a couple days ago. I found him at the animal shelter.
They told me i couldnt take him home untill his vaccines were given. I got charged 145.
Which ones did they make you get??
@@Ana-lm2rd same thing if you adopt, you're getting a pet with health problems for life
Thank you! We are doing titer every few years to check for his immunity and the recent one at age 3 is good! Our pup had terrible side effects so we will it be doing that to him ever again.
My dog got the worst case of kennel cough after getting the Bordatello vaccine required to be kenneled. He also got a case when it was required for training class. We won’t ever do that again…..
Can I please ask how long it took him to recover from Kennel Cough?
Michael Meyer, DVM, now in Germany, was having good results curing dogs with rabies in Gambia.
Curing them of rabies??!! THAT would be a miracle, wouldn’t it?? Boy, the vets would sure HATE THAT, if indeed the cure worked!!
I agree with you Dr. Jones!!
Finally…the TRUTH!! TY Dr. I am worried giving my 4 pd 1.5 yr old dog another rabies shot he is a Biewer Terrier & required by law here🙏🙏🙏Blessing’s
I am not sure where you reside but seriously I find these “ laws “ aren’t monitored at all !
It’s just a scare tactic.
I have had dogs my entire life ( I,m 67 ) and Never ever have I been approached Re guarding any of my dogs vaccines or city tags etc NOTHING.
I’ve lived in three provinces and one Territory.
Now if you find yourself having to cross the border that could be another story, we have crossed into Alaska from the Yukon also BC into Washington State many times with our Corgi and was never asked but that was several years ago .
I hope this helps .
@@margysfavourites8444 TY! I appreciate you! Groomers in my state require the rabies vaccine which is a huge problem for my lil guy 🙏🙏🙏
If you have a printer/copy machine you can update your own vaccinations very simply and no one is the wiser. Sometimes ya just got to do what you need to keep the littles safe.
@@cathyanderson8658 👍🏻⭐️👍🏻🐾🐾
@lauraquigley6403 my state too wants the rabbi vaccine. I refuse therefore we have to groom our own dogs. Do natural remedies for sickness.
You are a breath of fresh air
My dog just passed the three year mark since his most recent rabies vaccine. I told my vet that I would pass on giving my dog an updated shot, and he scolded me about being in violation of state law.
Yeah, I get that too. I just ignore them. If they continue I don't go back. It's all about the money with those vets. They are never forthcoming with potential risks and side effects.
What state?
