Can 4 1/2 month old Basset Hounds get bordetella, rabies, distemper, parainfluenza & parvovirus shots at once?

Question

I'm just wondering if I need to space these shots out, or if she can get them with just one visit to the vet.

Answer 1

The Bordetella, Parainfluenza, Parvo, Distemper will all be in one shot..the Rabies is separate..18-20 weeks is fine for all of these shots at once, unless she has trouble in the past of reaction following vaccination..

Answer 2

The pups shots can all be given at the same time, but alot of vets will not give the rabies shot until a couple weeks after the first puppy shots are done as sometimes it can trigger a reaction in the pup.
The vet will give one shot called the 5 in one or some use the 7 in one and this covers all diseases you mentioned except rabies. Some vets give the bordetella in a seperate shot along with the shot that covers parvo and distemper and parifluenza.
Alot depends on the vet giving the shots, but a 4 month old pup can and will recieve the rabies seperate.

Answer 3

If she has already had a couple of boosters before this, there shouldn't be a problem. We routinely give all the shots on the same day. Reactions are uncommon, but possible for any dog after any shot. Ask your vet what to watch for. Most do just fine. If she hasn't had any vaccines yet, then she should get her bordatella, distemper combo and rabies now and booster the distemper combo in 3-4 weeks. That's what we do at our practice.

Answer 4

She can get them all at once, and should have no problems. We do it all the time at the vets office I work at. The distemper, parafluenza, parvo...etc are an all in one vacc. Then there is the rabies which is given at 12 weeks, and the bordetella is generally drops in the nose. But can also be injectible. She will be just fine. She should have already had 2 distemper vacc, and if she didnt have any reaction then , she should be fine now.

Answer 5

At this age she can recieve a 7-way shot, which consist of the Parvovirus, Distemper, Hepatitis, Adenovirus. There is a few more but I forgot the names. She is still young for the rabies shots, they usually administer those at 5 months of age. Check with your vet to be sure.

Answer 6

Unless it's one of the "itty-bitty" breeds, or one of the breeds known for having a much higher rate of reactions, there is no problem giving all the vaccinations at once to a healthy pup with a competent immune system. <---(can only be determined by your veterinarian.)

People....please....think before you post, and post only about what you KNOW. I'm talking about everyone's different response to the age of rabies vaccination. It is dictated by law in each state...and they are not all the same.

Some states specify a minimum age of 3 mos (13 wks, not 12), some states specify 16 wks. No state I am aware of requires waiting until 6 months. In fact, waiting until that age will put you in violation of your state law, and make you subject to a very hefty fine if caught. Don't believe me? ASK YOUR VETERINARIAN and/or local environmental control office at the health dept.

Answer 7

Vaccinations are bad for you and your dog!

A vaccinated person/dog is MORE likely to get a disease than a non-vaccinated person/dog. The whole theory of vaccination is flawed. It causes a weakening of the immune system thus making those who are innoculated more susceptible to disease.
There are so many awful side effects to vaccination that it should be considered extremely dangerous.
Just sit back and think for a while.
Is there any sense in injecting a disease directly into the bloodstream.
We have been subjected to an awful mind control program to enable the drug manufacturers to make a fortune.

Answer 8

The Rabies will be a seperat shot from the rest, but yes it can get both a 5 way and the Rabies at the same time

Answer 9

ALL THESE DRUGS CAN BE ADMINISTERED AT JUST ONE VISIT TO THE VET. THE BORDETELLA, PARA INFLUENZA, PARVO & DISTEMPER WILL BE ADMINISTERED ALL IN 1 INJECTION, BUT RABIES WILL BE SEPERATE INJECTION.

ALL THE VACINES CAN BE ADMINISTERED AT THE AGE OF18 - 20 WEEKS OLD, WITH THE EXCEPTION THAT YOUR DOG MAY HAVE A REACTION TO THESE DRUGS. BUT YOUR VET WILL BE ABLE TO LET YOU KNOW THE SIDE EFFECTS TO THESE VACCINES.

Answer 10

All but the rabies, your puppy needs to be 6 months old to get that shot...But if your baby was 6 months old all shots could be given at the same time...
