Hi Stacy,

Not sure what you mean by "over" vaccinating. AFAIK, dogs are required by law to have rabies vaccinations in all 50 states. Beyond that, I wouldn't risk NOT having distemper/parvo (usually a combination vaccine) -- I've seen too many dogs killed by those diseases. Heartworm, round & hook worms (where a problem) can be handled now with a monthly treat (HeartgardPlus).

Most dogs are chewers if you can figure out what it is they like to chew! IME, hardtack biscuits (e.g. Milkbone, etc.) can do a pretty good job with tartar.
