Quick question on vaccinations

9 replies

Caan · 25/04/2011 20:36

My dog needs to have his first annual booster as he has to go into kennels at the end of May. I have missed the date by about a month. Will they make me start again from scratch or should I just be able to get the booster? TIA

You should be ok if only a month over. Ask about the kennel cough vaccine being done too - may not be a standard with your boosters and kennels likely to need it.

Yes, they've said that they want it. When we got him he actually had kennel cough, not sure if that makes him more vulnerable. Thanks for your help, I could do without additional expense as the cat is ill at the moment.

celadon believe me there is still no quick answer with vaccinations for dogs either!

I've got a stupid question about dog vaccinations. Do they have the booster when they are 1 year old or is it a year after their final injection?
My pup is coming up to 11 months old so I'll need to sort it out soon.

I am also worried about complications with vaccinations. Do they have to have a booster every year?

minimu1 · 26/04/2011 13:29

Year after final jab usually - vets usually send a reminder

minimu1 · 26/04/2011 13:29

how many usuallys can you put in one post

Teddy had his injections while he was still with the breeder, i did give the paperwork to my own vets so maybe they will get it touch?

I have enquired by email about the hormone injections as an alternative to neutering but the vet still hasn't replied. Do you know anything about it minimu1?
