Please DO NOT give her the Lepto shot. Alot of Yorkies have bad reactions to this shot, and I really don't feel it's necessary unless she will be coming into contact with alot of wildlife. I would only do the core vaccines for her, plus rabies if it's required by law. Also, it's a good idea to split the shots up if you can. Don't give the rabies on the same day as the others. It should be done a couple of weeks after. I really like Dr Dodd's vaccination schedule which you can find at this LINK.

I just want to say "hats off" to you, for being such a good new Mommy and taking care of this little one when she obviously really needs you.

W*E*L*C*O*M*E to YT!
