When you force your clients to vaccinate they shed the virus for days after receiving it this is why other dogs that visit your kennel/ salon get it ... you are injecting them with a live virus.
I own a grooming salon we do NOT ask for any vaccinations, however we do have the right to refuse a sick animal. Example: Goopy eyes, sneezing, coughing, liquid diarrhea, thin or just unhealthy looking.
I have not vaxxed for anything for over 25 years. I have done dog shows, agility, lure coursing & I groom & board from my house & do rescue. I talk all of my customers out of ever vaccinating. I never have any issues. Don't listen to others. Now I do use ever precaution but I've never had any issues. I find if your looking for a problem you will have one. Good luck on your venture :)
Excellent idea, Chris! Thanks. It's on my list for the near future. One thing you may want to get on board for your business (you can write me from my Contact Page) is kennel cough nosodes. I'll write more about them when I post about it, but they're both safe and effective in preventing kennel cough, unlike the vaccines.
