Though a raw diet can be beneficial, it is not necessarily the best diet for every dog. And while over-vaccination can be a problem, it is not the place of a dog trainer to give vaccination advice - in fact, I believe it is illegal for anyone but a vet to give medical advice to people about their pets. I certainly wouldn't do it in a public forum, and in such a casual manner. Opinions are great, but let's back these up with some references to research. Anyone who thinks critically will want to know HOW and WHY these recommendations are being made.
