"Hello ladies and gentlemen, I'm Dr. Marc Smith, veterinarian and co-creator of PET | TAO Holistic Pet Products. Common question I get each and every day of my practice is, "What is a titer test, and why should I do one?" or, "Why should I not do one?" I titer test is a way that veterinarians can measure the amount of antibodies in your pet's blood from a vaccine. Okay, so when we vaccinate a dog they make antibodies and we can measure those antibodies. Why wouldn't we want to do a titer? A simple answer to that is, titers tell us when an animal needs to be vaccinated and when an animal doesn't need to be vaccinated. The biggest drawback to doing a titer is the cost, because lots of times the cost of doing the titer test costs two to three times as much as the vaccine itself. A lot of people can't really justify, but titers are actually the best way to tell if your pet needs to be vaccinated. It helps us to prevent from giving too many vaccines.
