My puppy was late for her second vaccine. Does she need to restart?

Question

I took Rosie for her second vaccination today but was told that I would have to repeat the first one before she could have the second one,because I was late taking her. This was only by the receptionist and she wanted me to pay again before the vaccination. Rosie had her first one on 11/8/17 and I was a bit concerned about her being vaccinated twice. Am I right to be concerned? Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Small (up to 22lb) | Female | unspayed

It is very important that puppy vaccine are given every 3-4 weeks until they are 16 weeks of age. The vaccines must be boostered to work properly. If you took her on 11/8- I am assuming you meant 2016 Rosie should start the vaccine series over again because the gap is to large for proper protection. At this age she will need 1 set of vaccines and another in 3-4 weeks and should be fully vaccinated. However the united kingdom might do things a little differently than the United states. hope that helps
