My 13-month Shih Tzu needs vaccinations. What shots and cost?

Vaccine recommendations to partially depend upon his lifestyle and where you live. Also, that second vaccine should have been given in a 2 to 4 week window from the initial vaccine. If it was given later than four weeks after the first vaccine, he will need booster vaccines within a 2 to 4 week window. Assuming he was given the vaccines at the appropriate time, Kai should get another DHLPP and a rabies vaccine. If he gets groomed, goes to the park or has contact with other dogs in general, you may consider getting a kennel cough vaccine. Other vaccines are for Lyme disease and Influenza (dog flu). Your local veterinarian can discuss if these diseases are present in your area and what potential risk factors exist. You may be able to find lower cost vaccinations at a low-cost vaccine clinic or a vaccine clinic in general. You can generally find information online. Please feel free to post any additional questions.

Here is a link to vaccine information. https://www.vetcoclinics.com/services-and-clinics/vaccination-packages-and-prices/ Unless you have any previous vaccine records, she should get the Healthy Dog Plus package, and a rabies vaccine. I hope this helps.

Great question! Toro will need his DHPPi vaccine (distemper, hepatitis, parvovirus, and parainfluenza) as well as rabies. For both of these, he will need an initial vaccine of both, then a booster of each four weeks later to incur immunity. Depending on the prevalence of leptospirosis in your area and if you are ever planning on boarding him, he may need a lepto vaccine and kennel cough vaccine. You can speak to your vet about if those vaccines, but he should definitely get DHPPi and rabies. There may be a low cost vaccine clinic in your area, which can offer vaccines for as low as $20. I would call local clinics to get prices for his vaccines. Good on you for taking him in and getting those done!

She is a pretty girl!!! The most important vaccination (and one required by law) is the Rabies vaccine. This is essential. The second most important vaccine is the Distemper vaccine, which is often a combo vaccine sometimes called a DHPP (protects against distemper, canine hepatitis, parvovirus and parainfluenza). These vaccines are considered the "core vaccines" for dogs. Every dog should have them. The rest will depend on her lifestyle. I also recommend the Leptosporosis vaccine for dogs if they spend time outdoors in areas with creeks/puddles/ponds because this disease is a bacteria transmitted to dogs by contaminated water (rodents who have the disease urinate and it contaminates the water and the dogs can acquire it this way). The Lepto vaccine requries a series of 2 booster 3 to 4 weeks apart if she has never had it before. Other vaccines you may consider would include Lyme if your dog is outdoors and exposed to ticks and you are in a lyme endemic area, Bordetella also known as Kennel Cough if you ever take her to the park/groomer/kennel/dog classes/out for walks in areas with other dogs. Canine Influenza is another vaccine I recommend for dogs that come into contact with many other dogs/areas with many other dogs such as kennels or dog shows/events. That vaccine will also require a series of 2 vaccines several weeks apart if she has never had it before.

It is important to finish your pets vaccinations and most pets have to get 3 sets, depending on when the vaccinations were started and stopped. Typically vaccines are stopped between 14-16 weeks, of age, but again it depends on the sequence of vaccinations received. I would recommend that you repost with the exact vaccine dates,if given by a vet or not (breeder vaccinations should almost always be repeated b/c there is no guarantee they were done properly), and your pets actual birthdate. With this added information we can let you know for a certainty if Rosie is completely finished with her puppy rounds or if she needs additional immunizations. Thank you and take care!

Boi will need his DHPPi (distemper, hepatitis, parvovirus, parainfluenza) combination vaccine as well as rabies (it's required by law in Florida). He will need to series of each vaccine given four weeks apart in order for him to be fully vaccinated. I will put a link below to the Vetco clinic's prices for vaccines. I hope this helps! https://www.vetcoclinics.com/services-and-clinics/vaccination-packages-and-prices/

You should start as if she was a puppy, she will need a full vaccination course (2-3 vaccinations 4 weeks apart). you should also get her dewormed and treated for fleas. make an apointment with your local vet in order to start the process ASAP.
