Rebecca, I will let Paddy come for play day, and also boarding, without any further vaccinations. I've changed my thinking on a lot of dog related items in the past year. I just recognized you from your post of your Schnauzers symptoms, and of course your name. Kiss the PaddyCake......

Hi Rebecca,
I've written a page about this, actually. Your dog is being vaccinated while he's sick, i.e. with skin allergies and IBD. There's a word for this.
It's called malpractice.
You either need to get your vets on that same page and have them write your play day place a letter of waiver, or you need to change vets to someone who sees the reality of this situation. It's inexcusable to continue to vaccinate a sick animal. And, from other pages on my site, you'll see that he's not gaining further immunity from each vaccination he gets, and they are adding to his allergic problems by continuing this malpractice.
Best of luck with this difficult situation, but something needs to change here.
