My Yorkie is done with all vaccines for life except rabies (which is every 3 years) unless I decide to do another DHPP, but that's doubtful. This is after a ton of contemplation, discussions with her vet, etc. We stopped at about age 6. But she is a very sensitive girl and I don't want her to have to process any of this stuff. We are taking a bit of a risk stopping though (she had a low-ish distemper titer last time we checked). OR maybe we'll decide to do another distemper sometime..if the mood hits us. lol. I'd strongly consider lepto except it almost killed her last time she had it.

My other dog will be on the every 3 year schedule for rabies and DHPP. He will receive lepto single annually for now. Not doing bordetella. In a few years, we may stop the DHPP. Dunno yet.

We don't do corona, giardia, dental, or canine flu at all. If we did bordetella, it would probably be the injectable. And we would have to be at extremely high risk for lyme for me to even consider that one. We are at high lepto risk in Michigan.

Full doses are given. I don't believe in partial doses right now. They aren't all given in one day, but they are also not all split up either.
