Puppy Vaccination Schedule
Proper vaccination is essential for your puppy’s health. We ensure all our puppies receive age-appropriate vaccinations before going to their new homes.
Vaccinations Completed Before Adoption
Each puppy receives their first round of core vaccinations, typically administered at 6-8 weeks of age. This includes the DHPP vaccine which protects against:
- Distemper
- Hepatitis (Adenovirus)
- Parvovirus
- Parainfluenza
Recommended Vaccination Schedule
Your veterinarian will continue the vaccination schedule after you bring your puppy home:
| Age | Vaccines |
|---|---|
| 6-8 weeks | DHPP (1st dose) – Administered by us |
| 10-12 weeks | DHPP (2nd dose) |
| 14-16 weeks | DHPP (3rd dose), Rabies |
| 12-16 weeks | Bordetella (if needed) |
Important
Until your puppy completes their full vaccination series, avoid areas where unvaccinated dogs may have been. This includes dog parks, pet stores, and sidewalks in high-traffic areas.
Deworming Schedule
All puppies are dewormed regularly starting at 2 weeks of age. This protects against common intestinal parasites and ensures your puppy arrives healthy.
Records Provided
When you receive your puppy, you’ll get complete vaccination and deworming records including:
- Dates of all vaccinations administered
- Vaccine brand and lot numbers
- Deworming medication and dates
