- SigmundA 3y agoWell that says dogs have a worst case 0.0045% chance to have nonspecific vaccine reaction, allergic reaction, urticaria, or anaphylaxis within 3 days of getting a vaccine . Probably why my vet said to watch them for any reaction for a few days. Nothing you do is 100% safe including taking vaccines, its simply a risk benefit analysis.

- Madmallard 3y agoIt's natural to problem solve by removing variables when things are amiss. This is what probably many of these people are doing subconsciously. The number of bizarre problems developing across the population is skyrocketing in recent decades. With what's been happening to people's health and the lunacy we've seen politically and with health policy in the last few years it's not really a surprise at this point that people are losing trust and making their own decisions based on whatever they've been exposed to. If something happens to you, it becomes especially difficult to remain objective. God help us honestly.

- reportgunner 3y agoI won't die on this hill but the point article makes is slippery slope. 2200 survey participants -> 42% have dogs -> 56% of (some other group ?) dog owners oppose rabies vaccination -> 37% of (still the same group ?) dog owners think vaccines cause dog autism -> dog autism doesnt exist -> all dog owners who oppose vaccines are insane because dog autism doesn't exist.
