What You Need to Know

Keep Your Puppy Healthy with the Right Care

Bringing home a puppy is exciting, but ensuring they stay healthy starts with proper vaccinations and preventive care. Vaccines protect against serious illnesses and set your puppy up for a long, healthy life. Here’s everything you need to know about puppy vaccinations, wellness care, and essential health supplies.

Core Vaccines and When to Get Them

Puppies need a series of vaccinations in their first few months to build immunity. Here’s a general timeline for core vaccines:

8 Weeks: Distemper, Parvovirus (DHP).
12 Weeks: Bordetella (Kennel Cough), Leptospirosis.
16 Weeks: Rabies, Final DHP Booster.

Your veterinarian may recommend additional vaccinations based on your puppy’s lifestyle and risk factors.

Preventative Care for a Healthy Puppy

Beyond vaccines, preventive care is essential for your puppy’s well-being. This includes:

✔ Deworming & Parasite Prevention

Puppies should be dewormed regularly and given flea and tick preventatives.

✔ Regular Vet Checkups

Routine exams help monitor growth and detect any health concerns early.

✔ Dental Care

Start brushing your puppy’s teeth early to prevent gum disease.
