What's the cost of puppy shots and a new dog's first vet visit?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Dog | Pekingese | Female | unspayed | 2 years and 10 months old | 5 lbs

How much would first puppy shots cost? And how much would a checkup for a dog be if she's new and might have a tumour in the breasts or how much is surgery?

Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! The prices for veterinary hospitals vary greatly depending on the area where you live and what type of clinic you are going to (corporate such as Banfield, a private practice or a shelter that has a spay/neuter/vaccine clinic). You could call around to your local options to get pricing for an initial exam and shots, and then would be able to discuss surgical needs during that appointment. Good luck!
