My puppy was born on Feb. 19th. Is it o.k. to get her Parvo shot today?

Answer 1

Yes! she is almost 2 months old. most vets start the puppy combo at 6 weeks. that is three sets of shots 2-3 Weeks apart. personally I start vaccinating my rottweilers at 4 weeks, they are very susceptible to parvo. Get your dog vaccinated!

I noticed there are a couple conflicting answers try this web site.

Answer 2

6 weeks is the usual recommended time for the first puppy shots. She's old enough now.

You will need to continue with a puppy series until she is 16 (some say 20) weeks old.

That's the short answer -- the long answer is that she really only needs ONE shot, at the right time. The right time is when she is old enough that her own immune system will respond properly, but young enough to avoid the risk of exposure to the disease itself before she's immune to it. Trouble is, that right time happens somewhere between 6 and 20 weeks, and we can't tell if a puppy is at the right age until after the shot (and only then if you want to run a somewhat-expensive series of immune titers).

So, though no one wants to over-vaccinate, no one wants their puppy to get Parvo either; and most people start the "puppy shots" at 6 weeks.

Answer 3

Your puppy should be at least 8 weeks old before getting her first vaccinations.

Answer 4

I think it would be best if you wait till the puppy is about three months old

Answer 5

Any age after 8 weeks should be fine.

Answer 6

a puppy should be ten to twelve weeks old befor you take him to the vet usually they will give thier jabs at sixteen weeks old
