What happens if i dont give my dogs any shots and she 5 months old?
What happens is that you needlessly increase your puppy’s chance of dying from a disease and/or passing a deadly disease on to other animals or people*. Depending on where you live, you may also be fined, jailed, or have your animal removed from your home. If you (a) can’t afford the vaccines, you should not take on the additional responsibility of a pet and you would serve your animal best by giving her to a responsible home, and (b) think vaccines are somehow harmful for you animal, you need to educate yourself beyond going to Yahoo Answers.

If I couldn’t avoid it, I would leave it as late as possible…..I think six months old is when you would legally have to vaccinate for rabies? (Not sure of that, you would need to check your State laws.) We are seriously over-vaccinating our pets, and ourselves. Disease did not disappear because of vaccines…..to those that think that is the case…..stop believing what your government tells you, and do some reading on the subject.
