I have three six-week old jack russell terriers. I am taking them to get vaccinations this week (along with the mother), and I was wondering if anyone knows the average cost of vaccinating puppies at that age? I just want to know in general (sometimes there is an unpleasant woman working at the vet office I go to, and I'd rather not speak to her over the phone...) Thanks!

It depends on the veterinarian's office that you go to, and where you live. Where I am, it can vary between $25 - $45 per puppy. Paying the highest price isn't always the best, but you don't want to skimp on healthcare either.
Try to find a veterinarian that you like and who has reasonable prices, if they're close to where you live even better! Good luck with your puppies.

It depends on which veterinary clinic you take the animals to. A vet clinic I used to work at charged $24.00 just for a Bordetella (Kennel Cough) vaccination. It also depends on the nature of the vaccines, the less an animal needs it throughout his or her lifespan, the most likely it is that the vaccine is a bit more expensive than the rest.

boosters cost around $15-30 puppies need about 3 sets of shots, and then done every year after that
rabies around $5-15 typically given to a pup at 16 weeks, then again at 1 yr, and then every 3 years after that
most vets also charge an exam fee which is around $30-35 most clinics do not charge that fee

It relies upon on your vet. some vets will fee an place of work pass to for each shot, plus the fee of the shot. An place of work pass to could be around $30. some (yet not many) vets will in basic terms fee for the shot--around $7-15. Your pup will want ordinary photos each and every 2-4 weeks till approximately 12 weeks of age. Then she will want each year photos. she will ought to have a minimum of two 5 way photos in the previous she is secure. i does not socialize your pup with different canines or carry her to places like Pets Mart till she's had the two photos. Parvo is a foul ailment and till your pup is secure, you should be careful together with her.

The feed store can't tell you what parasites your puppy has, if it has any other health problems, advise you on preventative health care and house training, they can't spay or neuter your dog, and the kids who work there may not refrigerate the vaccines properly when they are delivered, thus rendering them useless. Save money, but maybe risk your pups health.

It really depends on your area--are you in L.A or rural Montana?
