Re: [RC] Vaccinations by mail - Cynthia Eyler

If it's a reputable company, I think it's reasonable to have as much faith in the chain of accountability of the retailer as my vet would have in his supplier.  To be on the safe side, though, we will keep some epinephrine ready at hand when vaccines are administered.

I'm always leery of vaccines by mail.  There is no easily-traced chain of
accountability, and you have no real guarantee that they have been kept
cold since manufacture, even if they come to you with a still-cold cold
pack.  IMO it isn't worth the risk--better to pay the extra to buy them
directly from a veterinarian.
