| Absolutely. I do even less than every 3 years. Yearly vaccines are a thing of the past -- and it's good that your vet is not doing them. They are probably following AAHA protocol. I personally follow Dr. Dodd's vaccine protocol. I do the initial puppy vaccines (DHP at 8 weeks, 12 weeks, 16 weeks, then rabies. Repeat at one year old. Don't give any more vaccines for the lifetime of the dog, except for rabies by law). I do not give any non-core vaccines. CORE Vaccines for a canine (should be given to all dogs, unless a medical condition warrants otherwise): *Distemper *Hepatitis *Parvovirus *Rabies NON-CORE Vaccines for a canine (should be given only when a dog has risk factors for the disease which exceed the risk of the vaccine): *Corona *Leptospirosis *Lyme *Bordatella *Giardia *Parainfluenza Quote:

Donating YT 10K Club Member | Actually a third vaccine is optional per Dr Dodd. Dr. Jean Dodds' Pet Health Resource Blog | Dr. Dodds' 2012 Canine Vaccination Protocol I do the puppy series, a booster at a year and titer thereafter

Donating YT 30K Club Member | My vet has done 3 year rabies and distemper for a few years now. It's better for our babies not to be over vaccinated,

| Her one year old birthday? Yes, they usually do a booster around one year again, and another rabies. There after that, the rabies vaccine is usually given every 3 years. Most states have the 3 year law. A few still have a yearly rabies vaccine law, but it's mostly 3 year.

| You need a certificate of health signed by a vet and I think it has to be within 7 days of your flight.

South west you need nothing, but you should have information on hand. That way you have the information on hand if something were to happen while you were away.

| A friend with a long history with yorkies says to only get 1/2 dose immunizations for my puppy. Opinions appreciated, especially since we go for our first shots tomorrow. |
