| Annual shots My Yorkie Twinkie is 9. At what age do you do limited shots, just the required rabies? Pam |

| It's a personal decision. I have never done annual shots. I do DHPP and rabies every 3 years. Max is going to be 6 this year and I think this is the last DHPP that I will schedule him for.

| I would not do anything but rabies after 9. If you board your dog or get them groomed you will probably have to get bordatella. You also might want to find out if your area is a high risk Lepto area.

| At age 9, I wouldn't do anymore DHPP ever. Follow the rabies law in your state. Most of them are every 3 years.

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | Rabies is by law of your state. As for the other shots, no, I wouldn't be getting them anymore if it was me.

| I would just get what's required by law, pretty sure your dogs immunity for the others will last the rest of his life. |
