my dog has not had her shots since we got her, which was 8 months. Now she just turned 2. I was wondering if it will cost more since i havent taken her to the doctor since she was a puppy. And how many shots and what kind of shots do you think she will get ????

Check with the local animal shelters in your area, usually they have veteranarian clinics that can help.
Since your dog is 2 years old now, they will more than likely forgo the parvo shot,
The dog will DEFINATELY have to have rabies, and distemper shots.
Believe me, nothing is worse then watching your beloved pet slowly and painfully waste away due to distemper.
call around to vets offices and ask them for an estimate so you know how much it will be.
As I said earlier, also call around to local animal shelters and such to see if they have a vet clinic and if they can help.
good luck

There are standard shots that dogs get as a puppy then yearly as adults. I would go ahead and get the process started. It may cost about 100.

No it won't cost any more. Unless you have a vet that see dollar signs.
All your dog should need is a boster and rabies. Alot of times vet give more shots then what they really need but you have know all about that. So just listen to your vet would be the best.

You should not be a dog owner. You should give that poor dog to someone who will take it to the vet and give it the shots that are needed every year. You probably do not even have flea and tick medication, or heartworm either. That dog could get heartworms, rabies or distemper. What where you thinking. Give your dog away to a RESPONSIBLE OWNER.

Annual vaccinations run about $100 for a dog, give or take. It will depend on where you live. Your vet will need to take blood to check for heartworms, rabies shot, bordatella vaccine, and there is one other that is standard yearly wellness shots.

it shouldn't .... though you need to take her to have her checked for worms and a rabies shot... the other shots you can by at a feed store like a tractor supply and by your own shots it's a 7 in one shot it will run around 5.00 bucks depending on where you are at... still she needs to see a vet but it will be a lil cheaper on you this way....

it wont be any more expensive now, it will depend on the vet as too how many vacs. the dog will get there is pretty much a max of 3 rabies, bordetella(kennel cough), and dhpp. The vet will also prob. want to do a fecal test and a heart worm test, and will prob want you to give your dog heart worm meds and flea meds.

no, go to an animal store and administer the shots yourself!
They give you directions on the pack.
That's what I do!
