The best protection for puppies is vaccination with the first dose given at 5 weeks of age through 20 weeks of age
with annual booster shots.
Not exact matches
Puppies should have basic protection from diseases that can kill or seriously affect them, but there is increasing evidence that adult dogs not only may not need
annual boosters but that jolting the immune system
with yearly
shots can cause other problems.
If you do need to work
with a conventional vet who is recommending
annual boosters for adult dogs, and / or a full regimen of
shots for puppies, you need to learn more about vaccinations so you can speak up clearly and tell the vet what you want and don't want.
