An electronic survey was distributed to assess American and Canadian veterinarians' perceptions on dog and cat vaccination rates. The top veterinarian concerns for vaccinating a healthy adult dog were anaphylaxis, soreness at the injection site, and lethargy; for cats, these concerns included vaccine-associated sarcoma, lethargy, and soreness at injection site. Veterinarians reported that the most common concerns mentioned by reluctant or resistant clients to vaccinating their dogs or cats were beliefs that vaccinations are costly and unnecessary or may lead to chronic or severe illness. There was a positive correlation between an organized anti-vaxx movement against mandatory vaccination for children in their community and the number of vaccine resistant or concerned clients. That the number of resistant clients was associated with the presence of an organized anti-vaxx movement implies that the human anti-vaxx movement is impacting pet owners' views on companion animal vaccinations.
一项针对美国和加拿大兽医的电子调查评估了他们对犬猫疫苗接种率的看法。给健康成年犬接种疫苗时，兽医最担心的是过敏反应、注射部位疼痛和嗜睡；对于猫来说，这些顾虑包括疫苗相关性肉瘤、嗜睡和注射部位疼痛。兽医报告称，不愿意或抵制给犬猫接种疫苗的客户最常提到的担忧是认为疫苗昂贵且不必要，或者可能导致慢性或严重疾病。社区中针对儿童强制接种疫苗的反疫苗运动越有组织，对疫苗有抵触或关注的客户就越多。与存在有组织的反疫苗运动有关的抵触客户数量表明，人类反疫苗运动正在影响宠物主人对伴侣动物疫苗接种的看法。
