This means anybody bitten by a dog needs to go through with the pain and expense of rabies shots, since the dog owner may simply lie about the dog’s vaccination history
Imagine getting rabies and dying cause someone thought vaccines make dogs autistic.
Anti-vaxxers really do weaponize their lack of education against us.
I think my dog may be Autistic! Her communication skills are very lacking. It’s so bad that she is non-verbal. If only I had known about the risks of the rabies vaccine before it was too late lol
Pawtism
This was actually the beginning of the antivax pipeline for my relative. They first became resistant to vaccinating their pets because according to them “our dogs and cats used to live a lot longer before all these vaccinations.”
It was only during and after COVID when they went antivax for humans as well.
Scary thing is, this person is a registered nurse still holding a license.
As more and more vaccines come online that seem to be complete game-changers when it comes to treating various cancers, I wonder if doctors are going to have to hide the fact from idiots that the treatments are, in fact, vaccines…
Even writing that, I have to facepalm.
I hate how this is supposedly the information age, and, at the same time, we seem to be surrounded by people doing some of the very dumbest of things. I mean, at the rate things are going, I’m waiting for some TikTok craze to take off where they are doing a “leech challenge”.
Humans have undeniably extended the lifespan of their pets, and a large part of that is due to vaccines
Rampant stupidity is at the root of so many of the world’s problems right now.
Stupid fucking morons.
Wow! I live in a state that requires rabies vaccinations, so I had no clue that it wasn’t actually required in other states!
I love how we have a way to save your dog from a disease with 100% lethality rate once there are symptoms, and brainwashed assholes still don’t trust it. If you don’t vaccinate your dog, it should be taken away. If an unvaccinated dog gets rabies, that person should never own a pet again.
Can you really just lie about a rabies shot? I guess if you get bitten at the dog park and take the owners word? My dog has his rabies vaccination number on his tag. If it goes to LLE I thought they’d put the dog down to check for rabies during the autopsy. Regardless I’d still keep my dog current on all of his vaccinations, but I could never live with myself if my dog ended up dying because of me.
My dog and I were attacked last year by an off-leash dog while walking our neighborhood. Both myself and the other owner had to provide proof of rabies vaccination to animal control. Their dog drew blood on me and mine punctured the other dog’s ear while defending me. If they couldn’t provide proof, or if there was history of previous human bites the dog would have been put down. In my state, anyway.
The vaccine I usually hear people turning down out here is the rattlesnake venom vaccine.
fun fact dogs, feral dogs are less likely to have rabies, because they are usually vaccinated already(maybe in countries like india, or the ME. the primary spreaders are skunks, RACCOONS, and bats being the most likely to give you rabies, since you cant vaccinate bats like you can raccoons or skunks. i think most of the cases came from bat bites.
Oh, gawd, FFS.
There’s no rule in the book that says a dog can’t be autistic
People have autistic pets now?
Jokes on the owners, it’s because the bitch was given Tylenol before she had her pups.
the rabies is a small price to pay to avoid the dog autism.
oh wait nvm they got it anyways by licking my hands after i took Ah sea toe min oh fin
Let their pets get rabies, maybe it’ll spread to the owners, and they’ll refuse the treatment
At least those idiots don’t endanger kids. And you can send the animal protection brigade after them, keeps both sides busy.
Unfortunately, their unvaxxed pets will inevitably spread diseases to people.
My dog is allergic to like everything and does not react great to the rabies shot. We get the three year shot and have her titrated every year and renew the shot if her titer gets below the vet determines. We get a letter every year with the titer. This is the only dog we have taken these steps. I guess what im saying is certain individuals or individual dogs can have issues but its rare cases.
Nobody is talking about that; problem is that a lot of people hold conspiracy theories and a rejecting the shots for dogs which can safely take the vaccine
