    Are vaccines for animals an evil plot by the manufacturers who bribe the government into recommending them? Should I not vaccinate my dog?

    “Should I not vaccinate my dog?”

    If you want your dog to die a miserable death from a preventable disease, do not vaccinate it.

    Pets have immune systems too.

    Heard a comment from a MO lady: Orthodox jews should never have pets because they won’t know how to take care of them.

    And there’s a ton of halachos involved, if you know them all you wont WANT to own a pet:) lol

    But the vaccine might make the pet less frum and they are poison and are also said to cause other issues.

    No, it gives one more opportunities to fulfill mitzvot. Every time we see that our cats are fed before we ourselves eat is yet another mitzvah fulfilled.

    I don’t think that prejudice against Orthodox Jews is fair when it comes to pets and responsibility. Right now I don’t have a dog, but I may have one sometime in the future. And if I do get a dog, I will learn how to take care of one first.

    I didn’t say I myself don’t think that Orthodox jews wont know how to care for pets, just quoted it.

    Orthodox jews will be less likely to own pets because they’ll need to give it more care than they’ll have time for.

    And it’s an added expense too.

    Forget the expense.

    When you have a pet, you have to pay for its care, which usually costs a lot more than the animal itself. Plus your cat may need therapy if it gets a chemical imbalance in its brain, which will happen according to the antivaxxers. And you have to make the decision of which vaccines to give.

    What vaccines are recommended for goldfish? If you try to stick a needle in a per rock, it’s likely to break.

    The gemara says a lot of things about owning a dog, none of them good.

    Don’t vaccinate, send the money you would have used for vaccination to a worthy cause (not PETA or ASPCA) and get rid of the dog.

    You will become a happier, more caring person.

    I will take some of your advice. I won’t get a third Great Dane unless I have to, and I won’t give them the HPV vaccine.

    All the people I know who have dogs are happier and more caring than those who don’t. It’s probably a coincidence, but it’s true.

    All the caring that is wasted on the dog can be channeled toward family and friends

    It doesn’t use up.

    You are correct however it does shift the focus
