Answers:
Puppy vaccinations are given at 8, 12 %26 16 weeks of age for distemper/parvo/canine hepatitis/adenovirus-2 and 20 weeks for rabies.
Lepto, parainfluenza, lymes and kennel cough (bordatella) should NOT be given to all dogs/puppies..only to those at high risk of exposure.
Coronavirus, adenovirus-1 %26 giardia should NEVER be given to ANY dog/puppy.
The next booster id due ONE year from the date of the LAST vaccinations. After that they are NOT done yearly but rather every 3 years.
Please check out Dr. Jean Dodds and Dr. Ron Schultz sites also the above protocol is the recommended one by the AAHA/AVMA and all 27 vet schools.
Alos in the november 2006 issue of The Whole Dog Journal there was an excellant article on vaccinating.
i would ask the vet
Most vets will send you a note when the shots are coming due once they go yearly after the puppy shots so as you can make an appointment to get it done. They won;t expect you to keep going month after month unless it's a ripoff vet. They usually do it all in one 5 in one or 7 in one shot.
