Question about puppy shots

Post by luvthehunt33 »

I have 2 young pups and I was wondering at what age should I give them their last parvovirus shot. The package said to give them each 3 shots and I have given them 2 so far. If you have some helpful advice it would be greatly appreciated

Thanks :)

Puppies should never start getting vaccines until they are 8 weeks, the mothers antibodies void them before that, and sometimes even after that. They need to have the last shot at or after 16 weeks.

8, 11, 14, and 17 weeks is the best most efficent timeline. If more than 4 weeks time elapses between shots, then it needs to be restarted in order to insure maximum immunity.
