Anyone know if there's a pseudorabies vaccine available? Was talking with someone who lost some dogs to it and it sounds like one hog could wipe a whole pack of dogs. Any insight would be great.

There is no vaccine for dogs. They have one for hogs but you have to go through an act of Congress to get it. I talked to my Vet about pseudorabies and he thought that a low dose series of swine vaccine would give a dog a certain level of immunity. When he ordered it the state came down on him, wanting to know who had the hogs, how many, and where they were located. He told them he wanted some to keep on hand but to just cancel the order.

I actually read a research study where they tested the vaccine on dogs and the survival rate was 15-20%, so really there's nothing effective controlling it. If I'm wrong, let me know.
