i just recently adopted my dog and she’s about a year old. she never got her vaccines so i was wondering if i get them now , if it would hurt her or be bad to get them now ?

No - it will not hurt her and I would definitely recommend getting her vaccinated! There are many dogs in shelters who get their vaccines as adults. Some core vaccines like the DAP combo might require a booster while others like rabies don’t.
