Is my 6-month-old puppy fully vaccinated for dog park visits?

Question

I found a Boxer/Pit mix puppy a little over 2 mths ago. I brought her to a mobile clinic to have her vaccinated because I didn't know her history and I have a 2 yr old Husky that goes to the dog park daily. I couldn't find her owner so I decided to keep her. The mobile clinic isn't available for another 2 mths so I gave her the 2nd set of shots myself 4 weeks after her first set. She is about 5 1/2-6 mths old now. Is it safe to bring her to the park yet or does she need another round of shots? Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Medium (23 - 60lb) | Female | unspayed | 40 lbs

Good job on thinking to booster her vaccinations. Her last vaccination needs to be given when she is a minimum of 16 weeks old (4 months) and a minimum of 2 vaccinations. Which based on your timeline I assume Has occurred but you should verify the dates you vaccinated. Also, I am unclear if she was ever vaccinated for rabies virus. This is very important and can only be administered by a veterinarian. You may also want to consider vaccinating for bordetella and possibly canine influenza if your state has had any outbreaks.
