Can puppies safely receive multiple vaccinations for the same illness?

Question

Good morning. Myself and Animal Control are investigating a pet store in TN. I have a question about the vaccinations the owner is claiming to give them. Neovac, Nobivac, DPPV. After researching I found some of these cover the same thing. Should these vaccines be given together? Thank you for your time and consideration.

Hello. Yes, all of these vaccines protect against at least distemper, & while it would be a waste of money to give all 3 at the same time, it should not harm the puppies. It sounds like this pet store owner needs some serious education on the proper vaccinating of puppies. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
