The Benefits of Getting Your Dog Vaccinated

Getting your dog vaccinated can provide defense for your dog from a variety of illnesses. Vaccinations work by injecting your dog with a tiny amount of organisms that are infectious. This is done so that your dog's immune system will be able to identify these organisms and fight them later on. Your dog's body will be able to release antibodies quicker in the future after they have recognized them.

When to Vaccinate Your Dog

Here are some of the core vaccinations and times that you should get your dog or puppy vaccinated.

  • 6-8 weeks: DHPP, canine influenza virus-H3N8, canine influenza virus-H3N2 
  • Two months old: Bordetella, Leptospira, Lyme
  • 8-10 weeks: Canine influenza virus-H3N8, canine influenza virus-H3N2
  • 10-12 weeks: DHPP, Leptospira, Lyme 
  • 12 weeks or more: Rabies 
  • Four months old: DHPP 
  • One year following the last portion: DHPP, rabies (inside one year of the past portion) 
  • Every year: Bordetella, Leptospira, Lyme, canine influenza virus-H3N8, canine influenza virus-H3N2 
  • Each 1-3 years: Rabies 
  • Each 3 years: DHPP

Performing these each year will provide your dog with the right vaccinations that they need in order to keep themselves healthy. Some of these medical conditions listed are actually very dangerous and can potentially kill your dog. Be sure to keep in contact with our vet in order to regularly schedule their vaccinations per this chart.
