HI, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Congrats! I think you should bring her in for your Vet to perform a post purchase exam with in 7-10 days. She should have her next DHPP vaccine 3-4 weeks after the first one. If she hasn't receive one with the breeder then your Vet will give her the first one around 7-8 weeks of age. Bring a stool sample with you. We recommend spaying small breed dogs around 6 months and large and adult breed dogs around 1 year. I hope this helps and congrats on your new puppy!
