I have adapted all my puppies on the follow vaccination schedule after much research and through my past puppies experience with vaccine reaction. This is the optimal schedule I use for my puppies.

NOTE:
*This schedule is for normal puppies that received their first colostrums (first milk) that is rich in antibodies through their mother’s milk. This natural protection can last 8 – 14 weeks. Puppies & kittens should NOT be vaccinated at LESS than 8 weeks. Maternal immunity will neutralize the vaccine and little protection (0-38%) will be produced. Vaccination at 6 weeks will, however, delay the timing of the first highly effective vaccine. Vaccinations given 2 weeks apart suppress rather than stimulate the immune system!

**If puppies were born without it due to c-section or hand raised puppies then they should receive their vaccine at an earlier schedule.

Puppy’s FIRST YEAR basic health & vaccine schedule:

DE-worming total 3 X @ 4, 5, 6 weeks old
1)    7 weeks old – Neo Parvo (during high risk season)
2)    (1st combo) 8 - 9 weeks old – Combo vac, 5 in 1 (DA2PP)
3)   (2nd combo) 11 - 12 weeks old – Combo vac 5 in 1 (DA2PP)
4)    (3rd combo) 15 -16 weeks old – Combo vac 5 in 1 (DA2PP)
5)    Rabie – 20 weeks old 

*DO NOT give small toy breeds shots containing LEPTO component during 1st year!
** DO NOT give rabie shot within 2 weeks of any other shots.


2nd YEAR basic vaccine schedule:

* DE-worming yearly
* Combo vac - the date of last Combo vac puppy shot
* Rabie - the date from last year's shot

Rest of the dog's life vaccine schedule:

* EVERY 3 year after 2nd year Combo up until dog is 8 years old

* EVERY 3 years on rabie after the 2nd year
