W. JEAN DODDS,

DVM

Dr.

Dodds is founder of

HEMOPET, the non-profit

animal blood bank, and a friend to animal lovers the world over.

is where we can have blood tests to check for

vaccine antibodies instead of unnecessarily re-vaccinating our companion

animals. She has written excellent articles that everyone, especially our

veterinarians, should read.

GREAT NEWS!

The

Rabies Challenge Fund

This is the answer to many of our

prayers! For decades, too many animals have been over-vaccinated with dire

consequences. Rabies is the only legally required vaccination and

the laws vary from state-to-state in America. With this 'Challenge',

research will

finally provide the science upon which to base rabies vaccination

requirements. On behalf of companion animals world-wide, THANK YOU Dr. Dodds &

Ms. Christine!

Please Send
