Can my sister take my puppy to the vet for its second vaccinations?

Hello I’m suppose to get my dogs second shots on the 10th but I’m out of state. Could my sister go for me?

Yes, that shouldn't be a problem. Just notify the clinic when you make your appointment that it will be your sister instead of you. They will advise if you need to do anything more. At most, they may require that you sign something giving her permission, but it should not be a big deal.

I hope that helps and all is well with Buddy.
