Puppies typically receive their initial core vaccination between six and eight weeks old. The included DHPP vaccine provides protection against:
- Distemper
- Hepatitis (Adenovirus)
- Parvovirus
- Parainfluenza
Early Health Care
A thoughtful start toward lifelong health and protection
Your Puppy's Early Protection Plan
Timely vaccination plays an essential role in early wellness. Every puppy receives the protection appropriate for their age before leaving our care.
Protection Provided Before Going Home
Recommended Continuing Schedule
After homecoming, your veterinarian should guide and complete the remaining schedule:
| Age | Recommended Protection |
|---|---|
| 6-8 weeks | Initial DHPP dose — provided in our care |
| 10-12 weeks | Second DHPP dose |
| 14-16 weeks | Third DHPP dose and rabies vaccine |
| 12-16 weeks | Bordetella when recommended |
Protect Them During This Window
Until the full vaccine series is complete, limit exposure to places visited by dogs with unknown vaccination status, including dog parks, pet stores, and busy public sidewalks.
Routine Parasite Prevention
Regular deworming begins at two weeks of age to address common intestinal parasites and support a healthy transition into your home.
Organized Records for Your Veterinarian
Your puppy arrives with a complete vaccination and deworming record containing:
- Administration dates for every vaccine
- Recorded vaccine brands and lot numbers
