Vaccination is a mandatory medical procedure for all puppies, as well as adult dogs, regardless of their breed. Now vaccination is done against such diseases as parvovirus enteritis, plague, hepatitis, rabies, leptospirosis, parainfluenza. All these diseases are very dangerous for your four-legged friends.
When is the procedure done?
Normally, a vaccinated animal does not suffer from the above diseases after it has been vaccinated. Puppies are vaccinated for the first time at two months of age. Until this period, babies still have immunity received from the mother. Therefore, as you understand, vaccination was previously contraindicated for them. Puppies between the ages of four and six months expect one not very pleasant process - a change of teeth. It is different for every breed. Until all the teeth have changed, babies should not be given a procedure such as vaccination. Puppies should be vaccinated (first time) between two and four months of age. If the procedure has not been carried out before this period, then the sick puppy is very difficult to tolerate the disease, there are even deaths. Remember that only he althy animals can be vaccinated!
Necessary advice before and after vaccination of babies
From 1.5 months you need to stop all contact with other animals in order to avoid infection. Two weeks before the proposed vaccination, deworming should be carried out. With a veterinarian, select the appropriate drugs and their dosage.
It is important that by the time of vaccination the puppy is active, completely he althy, without worms, cheerful and, of course, has a good appetite. The temperature must be measured for three days before vaccination. If it is normal during this period, then you can vaccinate, otherwise the animal needs to be treated, after which the worms are again "driven away", and then vaccinated.
It is desirable that a good specialist conduct this procedure, you should not trust your pet to someone unknown. It is better to pay extra money, but be sure that everything was done to your pet with high quality. It is also undesirable to vaccinate yourself. After that, you need to take care of your pet. There may be different reactions. Someone tolerates the procedure well, and some feel very depressed (appetite disappears, vomiting may even occur). If the symptoms persist for a long time (a day or more), then the pet must be shown to the veterinarian.
Until the year the puppy will be vaccinated three times. The first vaccination of puppies is done at two months, after two weeks a revaccination is done, andafter the change of teeth (at the age of seven months), the third, last rabies vaccination is carried out. It must be repeated every year.
A puppy after vaccination should not be in contact with other dogs for two weeks, as he now has a weakened immune system. Note that after each vaccination, you need to maintain a two-week quarantine.
We hope this article has helped you learn when to vaccinate your puppy for the first time, how to quarantine and other important aspects of vaccination.
