Yes, you still need to get the final set of vaccines. Since Peanut missed the last cycle, he will need an additional round. He will get this next set and then another round 2-4 weeks later. Vaccines must be given in a specific protocol to make sure of proper immunization. I hope this helps and please feel free to post any additional questions.
