The core vaccines for dogs include distemper/parvo, rabies, and bordetella. I would call your local vet or the clinic you intend on taking Max to in order to get the specifics on which vaccines they recommend for your area in the USA. They should also be able to give you a quote if needed. I hope this helps!
