How to vaccinate dogs
1. The female dog will receive a fetal protection injection at 30 days after breeding, and an imported quadruple vaccine at 45 days to ensure the health of the born dog.

2. Puppies will be given deworming injections 20 days after they are born. The first shot of two imported doses can be given on 45 days, or the first shot of four imported doses can be given on 50 days. After that, the next shot will be given every 21 days, for a total of 3 injections. Needle.

3. After the 3 injections, the dog will be three months and 90 days old. After another 20 days, the dog will be dewormed again. After another 20 days, the dog will be 130 days old. After more than four months, the dog can be vaccinated against rabies. There will be one injection every year. It is enough to inject an imported rabies vaccine 20 days and three weeks apart from the imported quadruple vaccine or replace the imported six-unit vaccine; the immunity period of the rabies vaccine and the imported quadruple or six-unit vaccine is about 11 months (imported), after which the immunity period The next injection should be injected promptly during the period. If it is a domestically produced vaccine, the immunity period is likely to be less than a year, or even only about half a year. You should follow the doctor's advice for the specific vaccine.

Notes:

Inject when healthy.

The vaccine may fail, and the failure is usually because the dog is already sick when the injection is given, resulting in incomplete immunity. You must pay attention.

Strict time intervals.

How to vaccinate pet dogs? The first vaccination is usually divided into three injections, with a period of time between each time. Many owners do not control this time well and feel that it is okay to take one more day and one less day. In fact, this may cause immune failure.

Do not walk your dog during vaccination.

During the immunity period, that is, between injections, do not walk your dog, and try not to bathe your dog to avoid catching a cold, otherwise the immunity may fail.

Check antibody levels.

Some owners just ignore the dog after injecting it. This is wrong. It is necessary to confirm that the antibodies are effective before the dog is truly immune. For injections and examinations, you should go to a regular pet hospital instead of a dog market. Many of the injections given at dog markets are ineffective.

Canine distemper dog vaccine has been redone.

If your pet dog at home has had canine distemper and has recovered (the symptoms have disappeared for more than three months), then the vaccine must be repeated. Although canine distemper is a one-time disease, you will not get it again after being cured. But canine distemper is not the only disease that dogs can suffer from. So be sure to redo it in time.
