So sorry to hear about your dog. It's always so hard when we lose them. Even harder when their lives are cut short. I'm very conflicted about vaccines vs nosodes. I need to do more research on nosodes. When you have a holistic vet and a natural breeder both recommending vax, that will tell you how much of a threat it is. I've dealt with this vet for the past 20 years & the only time that he recommends anything conventional is when it's truly the right thing to do.
I have so much guilt about the death of this dog, I can't imagine how I'd feel if I had a puppy get parvo or distemper & die. I don't think I'd ever forgive myself. There are no easy answers. I'm trying to do the best that I can for all of our dogs & cats.
