Default Nosodes as Lepto Preventive

After weighing all the pros and cons of immunization for lepto, I am going this route (nosodes) as a preventive approach. I realize you could get into big arguments on effectiveness, whatever...This was a hard decision with a lot of research and my primary approach will be strong immune system, vigilance, and rapid vetting/treatment for any illness...BUT....

Anyone here use them in this fashion? My holistic vet is getting me some (well I gather maybe it is just a homeopathic preparation) and I would be interested in hearing others' personal experiences going down this route.

Hi Nancy,
The Lepto vaccine IS dangerous, as you've said.
I have not used the nosode for this but definitely would if I felt it necessary in my area.
Here is a very referenced article that also mentions Cuba (like the article you posted) using homeopathy. LEPTOMANIA - THE PROBLEM WITH LEPTOSPIROSIS VACCINES, by Patricia Jordan, DVM thought the references might give you a few more places to research!

Most nosodes are prepared with a percentage of alcohol (to keep it from going fowl) which the dogs hate to take. If you'd like one without the alcohol
you can purchase it yourself at NaturalRearing.com :: Loading Website...
Hope this helps in your journey!

I haven't used the Lepto nosodes but I used Parvo and Distemper ones years ago.
