Hate to hear that about the dogs.
I have asked a number of vets about Pseudo Rabies, and they all have told me the same thing, get the best rabies shot you can for a dog, and it will offer a degree of protection. When they say get the best rabies shot there is, they all say get the one that only vets carry now (which I believe only vets carry a rabies vaccine now days). I have worked with many pig farms and confinements over the years, and Pseudo Rabies is not something to mess around with. If one of your dogs come down with it, burry the dog, bleach or better yet, throw away food bowl and water bucket, get rid of the house, and do not put another dog in that spot for a long time.

Me & my hunting buddy have lost 12 dogs over the years to pseudo.I did a lot of research on it several years ago.I was told by a Texas A&M vet professor that he could develop a vacine for dogs ,but the pharmaceutical companies would not give him a grant for this because there weren't enuogh hog hunters to pay for the vacine.That was about 20 years ago.Maybe now it be done since there are many more hunters now.
