I would shy away from the 7 in 1 shot at this point. Pups usually need to be at least 9 weeks before this is given.
Stay away frm the Duramune Max 5 by Fort Dodge.
We give our pups Galaxy DA2PPv, it guards against Canine Distemper,Adenovirus Type 2, Hepatitis, Parainfluenza and Parvovirus. We give them at 6, 8,and 10 weeks if we have poms the last is at 12 weeks. The rabie shot is given at the vets as in this state you can not give them. Some states you can legally give the rabie shots. Just have to check to see which ones.

No vaccinations should be given to a 6 week old puppy.A puppy shouldn't receive ANY vaccinations until it has at least completed it's 7th week with 8-9 being a lot better.
The only vacciantions a puppy should get is distemper/parvo/canine hepatitis/adenovirus-2..Lepto and parinfluenza should only be given to those dogs at high risk of exposure.
Coronavirus, adenovirus-1 should NOT be given to any puppy/dog.
Go to the AAHA site or Dr. Jean Dodds site for current recommended vaccine protocol.also get a copy of the November 2006 issue of the Whole Dog Journal. It has a great article on vaccinating.
Vaccinating a puppy too young is worthless in of it self..it suppresses the immune system, interfers with natural immunity, makes a puppy more suspeptible to the very illnesses that the vaccine is suppose to protect against and it can lead to future adverse vaccine reactions.

First you need to learn a little about vaccinations. They are not given as much now.
Read the University of Wisconsin
http://svmweb.vetmed.wisc.edu/articles/68/5/39
Now read what the American Animal Hospital Association is saying. This is the protocol that all 27 Vet Universities are now using.

And now do a little reseaching as to what the problems of vaccinating are. This is a site by a vet in Texas, Dr. Bob Rogers
