As you all know I am a breeder and I have shipped puppies. Most states require a rabies shot when shipping a pup 12 weeks or older there are a few that are 16 weeks. I do not recommend rabies on a puppy before the age of 4-6 months preferably the later. My vet simply writes too young for rabies on the health certificate and it is accepted by all airlines. Once the pup is in his/her new family environment I strongly suggest the new family to consider their life style and chat with their vet as to what is best for the puppy. If rabies is more prevalent in their state then obviously the vet is best to make this decision and advise them accordingly.
