RABIES
Get the help you need: proactive steps to take with a resource list of holistic vets in several states
Click HERE for sample VACCINE WAIVER for your pet
Has your vet been pressuring you to get your pet vaccinated against rabies? Many in our Healthy American family are alarmed at the sudden INCREASE in the push for (fake, phony, fraudulent and UNNECESSARY) rabies shots. So many have emailed asking me if they can get an exemption for their pet. I don’t know about you, but I will do whatever I can to keep my pets healthy.
Imagine: the same vaccine dose is given to an animal whether it weighs 9 pounds or 90 pounds! What kind of "science" is that? Especially since I can't even get any medicine for my dog unless she undergoes a complete blood panel to make sure she can "tolerate" it! (Note: Teddy is NOT on any medication; I am using this an an example of how ridiculous the one-size-fits-all vaccine requirements are for both humans and animals.)
Options to consider for avoiding rabies shots:
Find a holistic vet
I don’t have an exhaustive list of holistic vets, but here’s a good place to start for more education from a well known holistic vet, Dr. Karen Becker: https://healthypets.mercola.com/sites...
and also Dr. John Robb.
We are also working to compile a list of holistic vets in each state. Please email us support@thehealthyamerican.org
Find a mobile vet or mobile groomer that will come to your home
One reason for the strong push for rabies vaccination is that if your dog bites someone, the vet could be held liable. Although this is highly unlikely, it’s till a good idea to have a vet or groomer come to your home because it eliminates many “risks” and potential reasons for them to refuse care for your pet. Many rules and regulations differ from state to state, but in general, if another person's dog injures someone, the victim can seek financial restitution from the at-fault party (defendant) if certain conditions are met. Typically, the defendant is the dog's owner, but this may not be the case if the attack happened at a vet's office or kennel. Again, this differs by state, and cases against the vet or kennel are very difficult to establish, and the dog owner is usually held liable in like 99% of cases.
Get an exemption if your animal is elderly or has a history of adverse reactions
The other concept, which even your veterinarian should support, is that if your animal cannot handle the shot, they shouldn't receive it. Therefore, if it were my animals, I would argue that they are too old and have a history of adverse reactions, and that I would vouch for the fact that they are not physically able to tolerate it. Your veterinarian could then be able to write a medical exemption.
Get a titer to draw your animals blood to test their immunity
Although I don’t care for these unnecessary blood draws and medical interventions, this last option is better than nothing. At the very least it ensures your pet is healthy while minimizing unnecessary vaccinations (or revaccinations).
Consider non-veterinary options to keep your animals healthy
Again, I am not giving any medical advice, but consider ways to minimize those vet visits by focusing on healthy nutrition, the right amount of physical and mental activity, etc. I personally don’t take my animals for “check-ups” and only use the vet in an emergency.
Be sure to watch my video above and read my previous post linked below for more information! My original rabies post dives into greater detail about the law and questioning the existence of this so-called “virus.”

Full service integrative veterinary practice blending holistic and conventional medicine and surgery to optimize the health of patients. The holistic approach understands the body’s capability to heal itself. This occurs by rebalancing the life force within each patient. In western medicine the life force is the immune system. In homeopathy it is referred to as the vital force while in Traditional Chinese Medicine it is called chi. Regardless of terminology this healing energy can be released by various holistic modalities. When used by highly trained veterinarians these modalities are very useful in treating both acute and chronic disease. These therapies are effective and free of harmful side effects. Examples of chronic disease that can be helped by this approach include cancer, kidney disease, heart disease, skin allergies, and arthritis. They offer alternative healing modalities and integrative medicine including but not limited to diet and nutrition in treating and preventing disease, especially cancer; nutraceuticals in the form of glandular supplements, antioxidants, digestive enzymes, and fatty acids; classical homeopathy remedies containing minute doses of botanicals, minerals or animal products; acupuncture for hip dysplasia, arthritis, disc disease, epilepsy, skin diseases, and some chronic gastrointestinal diseases; Chinese medicine for diabetes, Cushing’s disease, cancer. and liver disease. On vaccinations controversy surrounds the issue of vaccinating pets. Recent research at numerous colleges of veterinary medicine is showing vaccines are producing long-term immunity in pets. The AVMA is now asking veterinarians to consider reduced vaccine protocols (vaccinating every 3 years instead of annually). They believe in using vaccines very judiciously and recognize the risk of allergic reactions, vaccinosis and the worsening of chronic disease by over-vaccinating. They also offer and recommend antibody titer testing to help determine if revaccination is even needed. Their doctors will work with you to determine the best course of action based upon your pet’s level of health, general lifestyle and risk for exposure to infectious disease.

We use East West Animal Hospital in San Marcos, CA
They will ask if we want to vaccinate our cats but they never push it. They always try to use holistic methods whenever possible. I’m glad you mentioned not taking your pets in for annual exams - I’ve been wondering if that’s necessary. We have 2 young cats (1yr old and 2 yrs old) who seem quite healthy so I don’t think they need to go to the vet every year. However as you know, we’ve been programmed to believe that pets should go to the vet every year and should get vaccinated. I know in the past, I’ve been fear-mongered into believing my cats would end up with leukemia if I didn’t jab them. I must admit, it still frightens me a bit because I don’t want anything to happen to them but I wonder just how rampant leukemia runs in healthy cats For now, I will keep them chemical-free for as long as I can.

The Rabies Delusion:
I have followed Dr Becker for many yrs. I value her wisdom. The only time my Baby has had any shots was to move from AZ to TX some yrs ago, because we were flying out, and the airlines required those. (She accompanied me in the cabin.). She has been with me for 11yrs, a shelter rescue, and is healthy, now 17 yrs old!
Thank you for the no vax link. I refused to let the vet jab my sweet, strictly indoor kitty the last time I was there. She finally relented, but I have no idea if I will be able to take my kitties there if they require any urgent care.
I am well aware that rabies is a hoax, created by Pasteur to find a “need” for a vaxx for the Rockefellers. They were looking for new drugs to manufacture from petroleum to sell for profit. No one has ever seen a case of rabies—ever.
Are there other causes for the symptoms of “rabies”? Yes. Poisoning from plants, medicines, chemicals, head traumas, and more. “Dis-eases” are named after a symptom or a cluster of symptoms.
