If you have opossum than there's a risk of leptospirosis. All it take is dogs drinking from a puddle an opossum urinated in or even walked through. I personally vaccinate for it.

We have an opossum walking around here at night. The good thing about them is they eat ticks.

I vaccinate to be on the safe side.
If you dont have those animals near i guess it wouldnt be needed though

We have both here. For me I think rats, chipmunks, squirrels, etc. are more common
