Hi Guys,
Do any of you know what yearly vaccines we should get our dogs? You see, my Max is 1.5 years old now and weighs 3.1 pounds. I heard you are supposed to give them DHPP, Bordatella, Rabbies, Corona every year. (He had all his puppy shots before and rabbies and bordatella) But I also heard that small dogs (so small like some of ours) do not need rabbies every year and in fact, it can paralize them!!! And for Bordatella, I heard it's like a flue shot where there are so many strains that it can not really get anything prevented. I only take him to the dog park, no boarding facilities. I do not know what to do at this time, if I should just get him the DHPP and/or Corona or what??!!

Please help!! Let me know what I should get him. Thank you very much!
