a) Yes
b) No
Have answered NO but can't say 100% for Maisie as yet. She was done when I got her (May) as hadn't had them for 4 years & lots of dogs around here. Not a believer in vaccinating annually (previous dog done every 3 years). May get booster next year & then leave but not decided as yet
Hope that's OK
