Who are likely to get parvo?

:wave:Rotties and Dobes have historically been prone to parvo. This is true.
That said, the parvovirus vaccine - and the use of multiple or combination vaccines in puppies and dogs - is NOT benign. "Combination" is like parvo, distemper and other vaccines all in one shot - commonly also known as 3, 4 and up to "7-way " vaccines. We just had a malignant growth removed from the rear butt cheek of one of my Rotties - which is where she was previously vaccinated for Rabies and in general is now a common vaccination site for the Rabies virus in dogs. The Rabies vaccine is known to cause cancer in cats at the vaccine site and can cause issues in dogs also. Research about the negative effects of vaccines before allowing them to be injected into your pet.
I only do Rabies every 3 years and do not vaccinate previously-immunized dogs for parvo or distemper at all <no yearly vaccines>
 
I do titers as well, plus I vaccinate for the bare minimums. Distempter parvo, yes, lepto and other stuff, no.
 
:thumb: same in terms of minimums. Haven't vaccinated for parvo and distemper since my girls were puppies, and did a very minimum puppy vaccine schedule as recommended by holistic vets.
