When can you have your first grooming appt.? I have 13 week old pup and wanted to know when can they have their first grooming appointment? I don't know if you are suppose to wait until their hair changes color or if there is a different rule? |
My Vet said not until they have had all thier puppy shots...most groomers require this as well... |
You have to wait until they have finished their full cycle of vaccinations plus two weeks for full immunity to take them to public places like grooming salons, pet shops, dog parks, and public areas outside in your neighborhood. Puppies get immunities from nursing that block the effectiveness of those first vaccines so they are very susceptible to deadly diseases like parvo. The first vaccinations shouldn't be given until several weeks after weaning, about 9-10 weeks. The last vaccination should be between 16-18 weeks. Parvovirus: Serious Diarrhea in Puppies & Dogs |
