Yes, . Most Vets I hear about still push it annually and most dog parents I speak with have no idea iof the 3 year shot. Not sure how many towns still require it annual- they may require an annual Registration/ Tag But that is separate from having a Valid rabies cert. I know, every town can make its own rules. I've looked into some that even require non core Vx annually to live there ! But that is not the norm from what I've seen.
As for the Vets, 30% of their income comes from annual re-vx. As the old saying goes," it's hard to get a man to understand something when his salary depends on not" I'm paraphrasing here/ that's why I mentioned honest veterinarians, there are many around and those are the ones that put out free videos explaining the safety and benefits of DE. Actually it's about the only natural substance that can get rid your beds of bed bugs. And none have been harmed by it unless they are just totally unaware. You can drink too much water and DIE. Everything needs to be used wisely. Again, I provided a link for VERY cheap generic "meds" and everyone I've shared the link with, personally I know, have thanked me Profusely for helping them save a Ton of money. I won't support those overpriced businesses where generic alternatives exist for like $5/pill. I've seen so many dogs damages neurological/ organ damage that I personally will do anything I can do avoid those months "meds" that are making someone very rich .. that was my intention in sharing the knowledge. I don't see anyone attacking the holistic vets online when they put out free videos to help us. I've found Tons of positive articles and magazines regarding diatom. Online. Very little negativity. I posted this for folks to investigate further . Hope it helps -

I totally agree with you Angie on the one-year rabies thing. Some of the one-year rabies thing is driven by local laws changing very slowly -- some towns sill require it! AAHA's blue-ribbon panel of vax experts completed the challenge study showing that after the first two doses a year apart, subsequent protection lasted beyond 3 years, but local authorities were super-slow to allow 3-year vaxing in some places (meaning to you were legally required to vaccinate yearly, even though that wasn't scientifically supported). It's been long enough that most jurisdictions have caught up. The current fight a lot of places is over titering -- there are still some localities that don't recognize titers as an alternative to vax boosters. That's a problem with autoimmune dogs IMHO.
AAHA is currently working on a 5-year challenge study for rabies, so we may see the 3-year rec pushed back to 5 years eventually. Where it's legal, any clinic that's AAHA-accredited will follow AAHA vax guidelines (3-year rabies, 3-year DAPP). Some corporate chains (e.g., Banfield) may push for annual re-vax only to get you in annually --clients should feel empowered to show them a print-out of the AAHA guidelines and ask them to please practice evidence-based medicine, as these guidelines represent a well-researched, scientific consensus from top veterinary experts.

Yes Many vets will also tell their clients to bring in dogs for yearly rabies vx, while it's only required every 3 years, and it's the EXACT same shot just labeled differently. As stated in my original comment many Honest vets recommend diatom * and it's Very effective end safe as humans have been taking it and using it for a long time. I would never reckoned anything that wasn't safe. It's called follow the Money. But yeas you do your dogs and no need to respond! I will continue to share effective and natural remedies.

I understand that current flea/tick medications can be problematic, but it appears that diatomaceous earth is not an ideal alternative. It sounds to me that the risks, and the fact that it isn't as effective, don't outweigh the advantages when the health and well being of the animals in my care are concerned. You do you, but I will wait for a better alternative, until and unless I hear differently from one of our vets. No need to respond, since you seem to be feeling that we are picking apart your recommendation. I applaud you for seeking out safer products. Again, you do what feel is best. We are all trying to do what we feel is best for the animals.

That depends on which Google you consult. We know they promote certain things and bash other. It's definitely NOT meant to be used in "LARGE AMOUNT" but very very small amounts, as fine as possible. . Again, there are many places like Dogs Naturally Magazine and many holistic vets on YouTube promoting its use rather than selling you expensive toxic products that literally poison your dogs blood monthly causing organ failure, seizures and worse. But, again, you're welcome to use (and spend and support) who you want. Farmers have used diatom for ages for the health of their livestock internally in food as antiparasitical. It's funny how people would get up in arms about this alternative to straight poison BUT happily eat glyphosate which is sprayed so much it gives the farmers cancer. To each their own I guess

DE is a skin and lung irritant. I do not suggest using this in the home or in large amounts around your animals

Diatomaceous earth is VERY affordable and also NON toxic s doesn't cause seizures or neurological issues. Many honest veterinarians will advise to use it and even put out free videos .

This is wonderful.
I want to work on getting the preventatives out to pet owners who otherwise can't afford it. It is SO expensive to a person on a limited income. I don't know what my final idea will look like, but here is one: When surrender is attempted for a behavior problem, offer a training program with preventatives as an incentive for doing the training work.

Sploot Marketing is a Strategic Alliance Marketing agency for pet welfare organizations and we have a new partnership opportunity available with PetFriendly!
PetFriendly believes every pet deserves the best care and that all pet parents and caretakers should have access to an affordable, easy and enjoyable flea+tick wellness routine, so they are prioritizing taking action within the sheltering space. They want to ensure adoptable dogs and cats have access to quality preventative care while relieving the financial burden of the shelter/rescue org to cover this monthly expense.
As part of this partnership, they will provide their vet-formulated flea+tick treatments (yes, for free) to keep shelter pets safe from harmful pests such as ticks, mosquitoes, lice, and biting fleas while awaiting their adoption day!
They will also help encourage adopters to continue a preventative care routine at home by providing a free first treatment and offering a fun and feasible monthly delivery service that will keep pet parents engaged.
At this time, we are looking for facilitate this partnership relationship with 3-5 larger scale organizations (150+ monthly adoptions) to get this initiative jump started and then will be looking to extend the invitation openly to other organizations within the next 3 months.
You can read more details here: splootmarketing.com/petfriendly
