Only ever gave pups their first jabs .. never any boosters 

Years ago a bloke who worked springer spaniels wrote an article about this subject. He had a couple of pups jabbed as normal, then ever year had there blood tested for the level of antibodies still in there blood, These antibodies disappeared over that five year period, The lab that conducted the tests admitted that after this period of time the bodies own immune system should be able to produce its own antibodies if and when needed. 

The problem with most pet dogs today is they are over fed and under exercised, The quality of food they are fed is also likely to cause issues, A dog fed on quality raw food and kept in as good a condition as is possible is less likely to suffer from diseases, it is a simple as that.

The Irish lads would know more but many years ago I had a couple of Irish terriers they were brought over and the lad I got them off said that they had been vaccinated but had no paperwork to show it, he told me they used to just buy them over the counter and do it them selves ??? As they had no record and I had some I gave them a shot anyway so don’t no if it was true or not 

Always did my own, you are allowed to do it but they will not tell you that.
