I purchased a 15 week old pup that had no shots. When I picked her up I gave her one before I left the guys house with her. My question now is should I wait till week 19. Or sooner for her next one. The 1st was a 5way. So far she is really doing well. I have very high hopes for her and just don't want to lose her to Parvo!!! Just wanting advice and opinions.
Thanks

Re: Question about vaccination?
Call your vet. I know a lot of guys give their own shots but I am a strong believer in using a vet. Vets find things in a routine exam that even the most experienced beagler might miss. I get a physical every year; I owe my dogs the same care. Just my 2 cents.

Re: Question about vaccination?
You can another in 3 weeks. I would then give a 7 in 1.
Re: Question about vaccination?
As long as you wait 3-4 weeks, I would go ahead and give anything 7 in 1 or larger. They now have all the way up to 10 in 1 shots also. I always start with a 5 in 1 and then follow 4 weeks later with at least a 7 in 1 and then a booster at 6 months. Since this pup is already older, I would just shift everything accordingly.
Re: Question about vaccination?
If it were my pup I would give her another 5 way shot in 2 weeks then another 5 way 3 weeks after the second shot then give a final 5 way 4 weeks after the third shot. After the 4th shot one year later a booster.
