Hi and thanks for posting on Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! If Snowball has only received one vaccine since she was a puppy, she will need to be updated on the others soon now that she is 2 years old. She will need 2 rounds of the Canine Distemper-Hepatitis-Parvovirus-Parainfluenza vaccine (each round given 3-4 weeks apart) and 1 round of the Rabies Virus vaccine to help bring her up to date. The DHPP vaccine as well as the Rabies vaccine is typically given once a year or once every 3 years. Other optional vaccine such as Bordetella, Lyme, Leptospirosis, or the Canine Influenza vaccine can be given as well depending on Snowball's lifestyle and risk level for acquiring these infections which can be assessed during Snowball's veterinary visit. I hope this helps!
