How old does a puppy suppose to be to get theri first shots?

Question

I have a puppy thats shes 2-3.
but i think shes porbably 3

And I want to get her the shots cuz i had a puppy who already died of parvo.
but this girl said my puppy has to be 4 months old before her first shots.

IS this true?

Answer 1

My puppies get their first shots at 8 weeks.

Call your vet and schedule an appointment right away.

Answer 2

This is a total lie. A Puppy should start getting their first series of shots at 6 weeks old then every 3-4 weeks until they are 15 weeks. At 17 weeks they can have their rabies shot. Then they need one shot every year after that to keep up their immunity.

If you start them now you need to give at least 3 series of shots and then the rabies shot with the last series.

You already run they risk of getting parvo if she hasn't been vaccinated by now get to the vet!!!

Answer 3

Call your vet to be sure, but 6-8 weeks is typically when puppies receive their first shots. 4 months is waaaay to old, and your puppy could contract all sorts of diseases if you wait that long. If you're not sure how old your puppy is, go see your vet immediately to find out. If she's really 3 weeks old, she's too young to be away from her mama.

Answer 4

I got my puppy's shots at 8-10 weeks (I got her from an animal shelter & the vet told me she was 8-10 weeks when I brought her in)

Then you have to get the 2nd puppy shots 3 weeks later after the first.
My vet also deworms them when you get their 2 puppy shots done.
Which it will only cost $28 for me.

Good-Luck!

Answer 5

6 weeks and you shouldn't try to bring her home if you had the other pup in the same house or area fro at least a year later. Teh Parvo bacteria stays that long. or waith until she has all her shots at about 4 months

Answer 6

My puppies get their first set of shots at six weeks, and then again, a few weeks after that. Regards
