I have a Berner and a Newfoundland. Newf is 8.5 and only had parvo and distemper as a puppy. We have to do rabies as it is law in NC and there are also some things in NC if animal is exposed to rabies and has a lapse in vaccination, so we do rabies. I do titers.
My Berner is 11 months. His breeder surprisingly wants me to do a parvo/distemper booster at a year. I recently lost my last Berner in January to lymphoma (did not respond to 4 months of chemo) at the age of 5. Exactly 5. Turned 5 in January and died in January.
Berners have such problems with cancer I wish titers were good for rabies.
