Oh, Sandra, I'm so sorry you had to go through such a hell with Tucker. And you bring up a good point: if the left hand doesn't know what the right has already injected, anyone going through multiple rescue portals is at great risk for vaccination overload and a disaster like Tucker's. All too often, there's no thought of whether a rescue has had previous vaccinations, and many times, it may be impossible to know, but I'd think isolation wards would be much saner and safer while a shelter tries to track that down. The knee jerk is usually to just blast away with vaccines, as if there were a bullet proof shield that confers super powers (and have no down side).
Thanks for sharing his success in recovering with natural methods.

Thank you for giving me hope should my little rescue go down that road after all the stuff well intended shelters and the rescue did to her while they had her. I am keeping a close eye on her and any question, my first stop is a homeopathic vet for sure.
