This is when she got her vaccinations, what do you recommend?
I didn't think she would need anything else until she was a year old and then maybe a DHPP booster at that point...
8 weeks - DHPP and Bordetella
11 weeks - DHPP
14 weeks - DHPP
16 weeks - Rabies
17 weeks - DHPP
Also, she seems to enjoy the Heartgard Plus that she is on, and we are going to start her on Comfortis now that she can safely go outside without potentially catching Parvo lol, anyone have anything good/bad to say?
He also said that she can go on Trifexis when she's at least 5 lbs (she's only 4 lbs now), what do you think about that?
Thanks!!  |
It seems to me that that's too many vaccinations. You might want to get a second opinion from another vet.
For flea/tick/heartworm control, I use Revolution, which is a monthly drop that contains one single medication, and can be used on dogs under 5 pounds in weight.
