I was told by my vet that there are no levels in titer testing, it is either positive or negative. Also, a titer should not cost you more than $75.

For those who don't want to buckle under this sort of pressure, information will help. Any titer showing = immunity established. So say the experts. "Protective" levels of titer is a construct, and an arbitrary one.
You can take the presence of any titer to mean that it's highly likely there's a long term immunity that will be "awakened" suddenly upon exposure to the disease agent.
