Lucy should have a distemper combination (DAPPV)shot now and then repeated every 2 to 4 weeks until she is 16 weeks old. Once she is at least 12 weeks old she can have her Rabies shot. In your area it is likely recommended that she be vaccinated for leptospirosis and Lyme disease. Depending on if she's going to be kenneled or go to a groomer she may also need the kennel cough vaccine. I would discuss with your veterinarian I was optional vaccines.
