My 6-month-old puppy hasn't had shots. What vaccines are needed?

Question

How many series of vaccinations does puppies need mine are already 6 months old

Jennifer Summerfield, DVM CPDT-KA · Accepted Answer

Hi there. If your pups are six months old and have never had vaccines, they will need a DAPP vaccine (for distemper, adenovirus, parvovirus, and parainfluenza) now, and a booster in 3-4 weeks. They will also need a rabies vaccine. Other vaccinations such as Lyme disease, leptospirosis, or Bordetella (kennel cough) may also be needed depending on what is common in your area and your dog's risk of exposure - your veterinarian should be able to talk more with you about this to decide if any additional vaccines are needed.
