Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Congrats on your new puppy! Some vaccines depend on where you live but the core vaccines are as follows: Distemper/adenovirus/parvo/parainfluenza- this is a combination vaccine given in a series 3-4 weeks apart Rabies- the age given depends on your area but usually at 16 weeks of age The optional vaccines are: Leptospirosis- 2 given 3-4 weeks apart Lyme- 2 given 3-4 weeks apart Bordetella- may or may not be given twice Flu- given 2-3 weeks apart. I recommend contacting a vet to set up an initial appointment. They can go over these in more detail and tailor them to Gnocchi’s lifestyle. They will also talk to you about intestinal parasite screening and heartworm and flea prevention. They can then discuss the spay procedure and get Gnocchi scheduled. Good luck and kisses to Gnocchi!
