Necessary or not? Some veterinarians and pet owners are questioning vaccinations By REBECCA T. DICKSON Monitor staff June 12. 2005 8:00AM A Labrador retriever in Maine developed a cancerous tumor. In South Carolina, a Basenji broke out in sores and nearly died. And a Los Angeles couple spent $6,000 on veterinary bills after their dog, Nikki, became violently ill. A growing group of pet owners and veterinarians say illnesses like these seem to spring up after vaccinations meant to keep their pets healthy. While most animals don't suffer any ill effects from the preventive shots, and millions have been saved because of them, some people wonder whether the frequency of vaccinations is more a tradition than a necessity.

A view toward Vaccinations

I studied with Dr. Regan Golob in the 90's and have always found his no-nonsense approach to health to be practicle and on-target.  I completely agree with the assertion that everyone should take responsibilites for their heath and medical choices - so always educate yourself instead of relying on any one medical opinion.

Vaccines: TAKING A SHOT
By Dr. Regan Golob, DC

This month I had an experience with vaccinations. A little one-year old girl had a severe reaction to her DPT, (Diphtheria, Pertussa, Tetanus) vaccine. In reaction to this situation, I was prompted to do some research on vaccinations.
