So Poppy was born on May 6, 2009. She should have got 3 DHPP and 2 Rabies vaccines before May 6, 2010. If true, she's not due for another Rabies until 2013.

If she did not get a 2nd Rabies vaccine, she will need one, to establish immunity. If she did get a 2nd Rabies vaccine, ask the vet about the law in your state, I looked online and I believe Maine changed to a 3 year requirement for Rabies in 2004.
So, basically, a dog needs 2 Rabies vaccs, and then can go to the 3 year vaccines. DHPP is not a State requirement, but is boostered every 3 years. Again, check with your vet, and maybe a few others.

Sorry, let me check on Mass.
