What vaccinations does my puppy need?

A:
|
Puppies need to be vaccinated for distemper, hepatitis, parainfluenza, parvo, (commonly abbreviated DHPP) coronavirus, and kennel cough. Vaccination for leptospirosis and Lyme disease are options depending on your puppy's exposure risks. Puppies should begin their vaccination series for DHPP at 6 weeks of age, and get a booster every 3 weeks until they are close to 4 months of age. Rabies vaccination is given at 12 weeks of age. The schedule for vaccinations may vary depending on your puppy's needs.
