The socialized puppy vs fully vaccinated puppy debate....

Just a heads up, Dogs Naturally is pretty radical…right up there with Mercola and Natural News.

Dogs Naturally may be “radical” on vaccines, but feeding raw is radical? Distinguishing between common sources of fish oils is radical? Homeopathy is radical? (As for instance <gasp> Arnica?) Titers are radical? TCM is radical? It is called Integrative Medicine, and just like on the human side, it is growing. Because Allopathic medicine doesn’t “work” for every dog and every human. Sometimes it is necessary to combine both.

Natural News is a politically motivated website. Dogs Naturally is not.

Marcela is just trying to sell product…at least he does list references and citations, which is more than some companies do.

What a bunch of bunk that dogsnaturally is! I prefer science.

Look at some of this garbage (from their article on parvo):

"And you know that vaccines are harmful. Chronic disease often follows vaccination, even a single vaccination

• [I]Parvo vaccine itself was immune suppressive[/I]
• [I]Animals treated homeopathically when sick with parvo had far better survival rates than those treated with the usual drugs"[/I]

I’m going to suggest that no one even visit that website because it is a bit infuriating. I feel stupider for reading anything on there.

Is this sciency enough ?

My sons pediatrician (yes human lol) said before he had his vaccines take him out and live life BUT avoid places where others would have a lot of contact with him. The idea being he’s going to get germs no matter what but avoid places that will have a high concentration of them.

I think thats a reasonable thing with a puppy also, parks, Home Depot, walks around the neighborhood yes. Petco, dog parks, meet up groups not till vaccines where done.
