<p>Gone back into my vet friends facebook, but not quite far enough yet to find the paper on Lepto. Maybe tomorrow evening I will find it. if not, I will mail her for the link.

<p>Yes she does. She has been right in there speaking to the manufacturers, and even attending seminars and recommending seminars of others who are right there in the manufacturing know. Being a part of mercola.com she is going to be right there at the forefront, as the mission of Mercola is to educate people concerning the truth about drug companies and the things they don't really want us to understand.…</p>

<p></p>
<p>The question still has to be asked, how to do you know that you are vaccinating against the correct strain, and that the immune system is actually going to retain the information longer than a couple of months maximum. If the drug companies are admitting this is the case, which from reading the paper my friend posted on her facebook page, then there is obviously a problem.</p>

<p>Dr. Becker... hmmm...does she know what she is talking about? 20 serovars? I read of 200 - and each year many dogs do actually die of Leptospirosis! Those that survive kidney failure only do so thanks to intensive treatment So suggesting that leptospirosis is a harmless and easily treatable disease is simply wrong and can cause people to feel falsely secure.</p>
<p>I suggest anyone concerned should speak to their vet and find out what the risk is in your country and the area you live in.…</p>

<p>I suggest anyone concerned should speak to their vet and find out what the risk is in your country and the area you live in. Over recent years in Switzerland there has been a sudden and deadly rise of Leptospirosa bratislava and others in dogs. The vaccine does not cover all serovars but it may at least give some protection.</p>
<p>I will be vaccinating my dogs - same as every year - preferably in Feb/March to assure high levels of immunity during the warmer months when the risk of Lepto is at its highest. I will also do all I can to stop the dogs from drinking water from puddles and provide them with bottled water when out on walks. I for one - and many who have lost their dog in recent years - would be most grateful to have a vaccine that covered the serovar 'leptospirosa bratislava' and I'd not hesitate to have my dogs vaccinated.</p>
