J&O Puppies Immunization Protocol
Why We Choose Nosodes Over Conventional Vaccines
At J&O Puppies, our highest priority is the health, safety, and lifelong well-being of every puppy we raise.
As part of our holistic, natural rearing approach, we use homeopathic nosodes instead of conventional vaccines to protect our puppies from Parvo and Distemper.
This decision comes from both careful research and, heartbreakingly, our own lived experience, a devastating “case study” we never asked for, but one that taught us invaluable lessons about immunity and vaccine efficacy.
We are passionate about educating our families so you can make informed decisions and understand how to support your puppy’s health through this protocol.
What Are Nosodes?
Nosodes are homeopathic preparations made from the energetic signature of specific diseases, in this case, Parvovirus and Distemper — prepared through a process of serial dilution.
They do not contain infectious material or harmful adjuvants. Instead, they work with your dog’s innate immune system to build resilience gently and naturally, without the toxic load of conventional vaccines.
Benefits of nosodes:
Non-toxic, safe, and gentle
No risk of adverse reactions
Work through cellular immunity, not antibody stimulation
Not blocked by maternal antibodies
Can be safely re-dosed at any time
Proven efficacy in both veterinary clinical experience and in our own program
Backed by Leading Holistic Veterinarians
Our protocol is based on the work of trusted holistic veterinarians with decades of experience using nosodes safely and effectively:

What the Studies Show
It’s important to understand that vaccines are not foolproof:
- Parvo vaccine failure rates range from 30–40% in real-world conditions
- Maternal antibodies often override early puppy vaccines, making them ineffective
- Vaccines do not always cover new strains of the virus
- Serious vaccine reactions are documented and occur with enough frequency to warrant caution

Vaccine manufacturer inserts, e.g.:
Vanguard® Plus 5/CV-L4, Zoetis: “As with all vaccines, a small percentage of animals may not respond to vaccination.”
In our own experience — and the experience of holistic veterinarians worldwide — nosodes have provided consistent and reliable protection when used properly.
Our Personal Story: A Tragic Lesson That Changed Everything
One of the most heartbreaking experiences I’ve ever faced as a breeder was losing an entire litter of healthy, thriving puppies after they were vaccinated. These little ones were strong, vibrant, and full of life—and within days of receiving their shots, everything changed. What should have been a routine step for their “protection” ended in tragedy. The loss was not only devastating—the heartbreak changed me forever—but it also filled me with anger and a determination to find answers and a natural solution. From that moment on, I made it my mission to prevent this from ever happening to an innocent animal again.
That painful experience became the turning point in my journey. It forced me to look beyond the conventional model and ask deeper questions about what true protection really means. I realized that real health cannot come from injections filled with chemicals and toxins—it has to be built naturally, from the inside out. This was when I fully embraced a holistic path, focusing on nutrition, low-stress and chemical-free environments, and a more naturally acquired immune support like nosodes to strengthen the immune system. What began as heartbreak grew into purpose: a lifelong commitment to raising pets in a way that honors their natural ability to thrive the way God intended.
Nosode Efficacy
Take a look at the data on the use of nosodes compiled by Dr Todd Cooney, a mentor from the Pitcairn Institute of Veterinary Homeopathy.
After Dr Todd Cooney became a homeopathic vet, he switched from parvo vaccination to Homeopathic Nosodes.
The first improvement was no more anaphylactic reactions to vaccines. He no longer saw puppies develop hives or facial swelling. Dr Cooney’s case records also showed some fascinating statistics.
Here’s how nosodes affected parvo survival compared to vaccines:
Over an 18 month period, 275 puppies got homeopathic wellness packages at the clinic.
- 12 puppies caught parvo
- 10 of the 12 survived (treated only with homeopathic medicines)
35 pups who did not get the wellness package caught parvo…
- 20 survived
- 15 died
And here’s the really interesting part…
- Of the 30 puppies who survived parvo, only 6 (20%) were vaccinated.
- 15 (50%) of the survivor pups had only nosodes.
- Of the 17 puppies who died, 13 were vaccinated (76%).
- Of the puppies who received only nosodes, NONE DIED.
Vaccination lowered the puppies’ survival rates, even when they got nosodes too. A small number of pups received vaccines first, then nosodes later:
- 1 (3%) of the 30 survivors
- 5 (29%) out of 17 puppies who died
All pups received only homeopathic medicines for treatment.
In this practice, it was shown that vaccination against parvo (even when combined with nosodes) actually lowered the survival rates of the puppies that contracted the disease!
