I don't give extra vaccinations to dogs under one year old. The core vaccines yes. So no way would I give a 4mth old pup a lepto shot - but again specific questions need to be asked of the vet about incidence rate - the servovars in your area etc.


But I do give Lepto vaccine to my adult crew. It is in our area - and as we hike and our fav activity is swimming - and I have two nose dogs - they get it! I know that they are only somewhat protected. I also know we don't have the servovar info at least in a relatively current state as to what is going in SW Ontario.


But is a decision that needs to be tailored to your dog and your locale.
