Title: Re: Giving shots Post by: wranglercurs on November 02, 2011, 09:25:29 am Thanks, So after going though the parvo in the pup's the last few days. Do ya'll think it would hurt to give my older dogs an 8-1
Title: Re: Giving shots Post by: Reuben on November 02, 2011, 10:26:42 am in Texas the rabies vaccine has to be done by a vet, you can have it done at 4-5 months...
i have given one 8 in 1 vaccine to a few pups an it has been enough but I wouldn't bet on it working all the time... if the grown dogs have had a yearly 8 in 1 they should be ok...

Title: Re: Giving shots Post by: tnhillbilly on November 02, 2011, 09:44:33 pm I give mine 5- way @ 4, 6, 10 weeks then 8-1 about 13. The shots don't do any good while pups are still nursing, but just to be on the safe side I start mine at 4 weeks cause some start weaning earlier than others.
Once they have their initial 3-4 shots as pups they are vaccinated for life. No need to get annual boosters, its a money racket. The one year rabies is exact same as the 3 yr rabies, bit they charge you more for the 3 yr. Another money racket. Title: Re: Giving shots Post by: wranglercurs on November 02, 2011, 10:41:04 pm Thanks guy's, This hit my yard so fast an hard I was thanking about giving the older dogs a parvo shot just to do it. But on the other hand I was scared to because I thank I did wrong by giving the male pup's the shot after they'd been around the females.
Title: Re: Giving shots Post by: brandeek1 on November 02, 2011, 11:51:29 pm We give 5 way at 4 weeks...7 way at 8 weeks..... 7 way at 12 weeks..... 8 way at 16 weeks and 8 way at year old. We do our own rabies too. Hogs don't care if the dog has a tag on or not. Lol.
