No, you should've had her vaccinated before she came into heat, certain vaccines harm the growth of the puppies, when the puppies are born take both the puppies and the mother to the vet and have them checked out, they can tell you what to do if you get sick puppies, when they are a couple of weeks old if you're are worried, some vets might vaccinate the mother, and she can pass some of the antibodies of the vaccine to her puppies to protect them until they are old enough for the full vaccine

Pregnant dogs should not be vaccinated
Exerpt taken from PetEducation.com-
Drs Foster & Smith info source:
"Birth defects or infections
The vaccination of pregnant animals with a modified live vaccine can result in birth defects or abortions. It is recommended that modified live vaccines NEVER be given to pregnant animals. In addition, vaccinating puppies and kittens less than 4-5 weeks of age, can actually result in them becoming infected and developing disease from modified live vaccines."

Never vaccinate a pregnant dog. If she has had any vaccinations in the last 7 years, she is protected.

When the pups are born, just be very careful. Do not let people in to see them. Do not take them out except to go to the vet.

you ought to have as a lot as date vaccines previously breeding!!! you do not vaccinate a pregnant canines. Wait till the doggies are due for his or her vaccines and get all of us finished quickly. Rabies must be finished on a pregnant canines, in spite of the undeniable fact that it is fantastic to in hardship-free words wait. All different vaccines, NO.

NO!!! Absolutely no vaccinations during pregnancy. You can do it afterwards, and you should have done it before you bred her.
If she lost her previous litter because she had Parvo, she now has immunity against that
particular disease.

I'm confused. If you had complications with the first pregnancy and disease, why didn't you seek advice from the vet before you allowed(yes allowed) her to be come pregant again? You should have had plenty of time! ALso, why aren't you asking the vet what his opinion is?

Well, you could've avoided that by having her spayed after the first dead litter. But you didn't. You could've updated her shots before you bred her the second time. But you didn't.
Now you don't know what to do. Big surprise!
CALL THE VET!

ALL OF THEM KNOW MORE ABOUT BREEDING THAN YOU!

when your dog becomes pregant there are few vaccines to give your dog that wont harm the puppies. i suggest that you take it to the vet, they will have the best decision for your dogs condition.
