How many vaccines can my 11-week-old puppy safely get at one time?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Dog | Labrador Retriever | Male | unneutered | 2 months and 29 days old

Recently (within the last 2 day) got 11wk old Lab pup. He has yet to get any of his shots. Can I get him multiple shots? Or must it be one at a time?

Congrats on your new dog!! Yes, you can get multiple shots. I would get Boomer a combination shot that protects agains DHPP (distemper, adenovirus [hepatitis], parainfluenza, and parvovirus). In one week, he can get his rabies vaccine, as it's recommended to give him that for the first time at 12 weeks. Boomer will need a booster of DHPP four weeks after the first injection (15 weeks old), and a third booster for DHPP another four weeks after the second injection (19 weeks old). At this last set of injections, he will need another booster of rabies. After this, he will not need any more vaccines until a year after this last series of vaccines.
