When can my 12 week old German Shepherd puppy continue his vaccination schedule now that he has been recovered from the Parvo virus for one week?
He had his dhppi injection at 6 weeks.
Many thanks.

Only a vet will be able to help you with this as you may need to wait a little longer due to his past illness.
If he was seeing a vet during his illness then call the vet's office and ask your question as they will have all of his records and can set him up for whatever else he needs as there are more shots than just for Parvo protection.
If he did not see a vet during his illness then you need to call a vet and explain what happened with the Parvo and then let them decide when to set him up for a check-up.

How old do puppies have to be to get their shots ?
By sarah from 95204
First shots should beging at 6-8 weeks and every four weeks after until 3 series are complete. During the last set he will also receive his rabies shot (Usually at 16 weeks). And then one a year. A second rabies shot is given one year after the first.
When should puppies get their first set off shots?

Never. Any vaccine has all sorts of poison garbage. Look up vaclib.org and you will see ingredients--mercury-aluminum-antifreeze-animal pus-and endless list of danger. Build the immune system. raw diet is best. Nothing from your local grocery store dog food aisle. See ingredients in the common dog foods. Usual first ingredient is corn. Corn causes allergy and immune shut down. Bad skin. You will buy problems when you buy immune busters. Even science diet usually has corn as first ingredient. You can fix great food at home. Combine at least some raw for health. Common foods can be prepared and portioned. freeze and your pet food bill will be less than buying the poison from your grocery store. Yes, poison.
Euthanized animals from the pounds are being put back into pet food. The Euthanol does not cook out. Google pet food contents and you will heave. Good to prepare foods such as sweet potato,canned jack mackeral, ground turkey, brown rice, veggies(raw and/or cooked. eggs, sweet butter, yogurt (yes often), cottage cheese, lots of ingredients can be found if you google health foods for dogs. When you build the immune system you have natural health. When you vaccinate you destroy the immune system.
Often times the Parvo shot gives Parvo. Rabies shot mandatory if animal control is active in your area. Have to do the rabies? Prepare Thuja (easy to get homeopathic available at lots of health food stores) to be given just before vaccine and for 3 days after. It helps some. Your pal will have a longer life, a healthy life with your good care. You deserve him and he deserves you. Never a better friend.

My dog had puppies and I do not know when to get their first shots. They are about 3 weeks old.
When do you give a puppy shots, if taken from the mother at 4 weeks old?
