Should I have started with the second set instead of starting all over again?
Also, after the initial puppy vaccinations, I'm curious on how often members here re-vaccinate your puppies. Is there a law that require certain vaccinations over the years? rabies shots?
Also, Is it normal to get the ONE YEAR booster shots after completing puppy vaccination series ? I'm debating whether I should even get this done. After the one year shots though, they won't be receiving any more shots for their lifetime. |
I only do the puppy shots and that is at approx 10 weeks old 14 weeks old and then 18 weeks old. They can be boostered one year after that last puppy vaccination if you want to. Alternately, you can have a titer done to see what levels of immunization are still there.
I do the 4 way only do not allow them to include Corona virus or lepto.
NEver ever let your Vet do rabies in combo with any other vacc's
Never allow your Vet to vaccinate at the same time as any surgery when they are under anesthesia or had anesthesia that day.
I would be looking for a new Vet given what your vet is wanting to do.
BUT some states require different things as State laws. We dont have that issue here in Canada.
