| If the pup has a questionable vaccine history, you will need to start over with them. At two months, I'd hope he hasn't had any yet.

| Yes, if your puppy is only two months old he needs to start his vaccinations. If he had any before that, the antibodies he got from nursing interfered with them so they wouldn't be effective anyway. I would file a report on the pet shop with the Better Business Bureau and Attorney General's Office. |

| This is the thing I dont know what to do...I got a link from someone here in YT....To check info on my Yorkie since I made the mistake of getting him from pet shop.....So now the person writes back to me and believes that my dog is part of that group and the person who claims is the breeder buys the puppies at 1 month old from s. korea........so she believes that my puppy was bought at age of 2 months old and not 5 months old....so if this is the case the pet shop told me that he had all his vaccines....that he just needed rabbies....i dont know what to do....like do i go to the pet shop and demand the truth or what...im so mad and worried more about my stinky health.....dont know what to do....no wonder he has not gotten over the cough...since i bought him he has had the cough...its better now with vet but when i just got him it was terrible. |

| Have you taken your puppy to your vet? He will be able to estimate his age. Do not use a vet the pet store recommended. If he is as young as you think, he will need to start his vaccinations over again. |

| I just remember that he cannot get his vaccines again because he has a cough right now....Vet said he cannot get his rabbies when i saw him last time because of the cough....that means he will tell me the same thing about my lil one getting his vaccines |
