They get a series of puppy shots 9, 12, 16 and 6 months..a booster at 3 yrs..none after that time. A yearly parvo and 3 yr rabies.
I used to start at 6 weeks, but many vets tell me mothers immunity is more then adequate until 9 weeks..in fact giving too early has the opposite effect on the immune system. |
So the next thing he needs is parvo then rabies at 3 years?? That is very good information because I just looked at the schedule that they want me to do and it is as follows; in August 08' Bordetella, November08' DA2PPV Booster ( whatever that is) and then on 7/09 rabies 3 year he will only be 2 years old then??? That does not seem right- if someone has any advice it would be appreciated
