Giving multiple vaccines at the same time increases the load on the immune system. If there's ever an adverse reaction, you won't know which vaccine caused it. Lepto used to be pretty high % of reactions, supposedly modern Lepto is much better, but I don't have the hard data. I don't vaccinate annually, it's not needed. Other than rabies (required by law). I don't vaccinate kennel cough, as I don't board them. Lepto is debatable. I doubt there's much Lepto in Timmins. Ask your vet - do they see dogs sick with Lepto?
I might do Lepto this year. I already have the vaccine.

This is how they did the last round as well (back when she needed the rabies along with the others) inbetween it was just the one booster or two, forget now.
