    What vaccinations do your dog(s) get?

    It's almost that time for Roscoe, so I was curious - what vaccinations does everyone get for your dogs? Do you get them any vaccinations? And how often?

    My guys get their rabies done every 3 years. I was planning on not vaccinating them against anything else for the rest of their lives.. but the vet gave Kai the combo vaccine when I asked for JUST the rabies vaccine. Boooooy was I mad.

    The puppy coming home has had all three sets. She'll just be getting the rabies done every three years and titres done regularly.

    Kai [Sheltie], Kaedyn [Sheltie], Keeva [Malinois], Kwik [Malinois]

    Keva has had all of the puppy shots (Parvo, distemper, bordatella, etc.), including rabies. With me bringing her to work every day, there's lots of dogs she's exposed to I didn't want to risk her getting any of those since they are more serious if the dog is young. Nebo had all of the yearly shots up until last year (he didn't get them), I decided to just get rabies from now on. They'll both always be current on rabies shots, I know some people are even against that, but it is required by law. We go camping often so there's a possibility of coming across a wild animal with rabies, plus the legal issues if a bite were to occur, etc. Unfortunately the city law requires it every 2 years instead of every 3. :/ They are also kept on heartworm preventative year round.

    Mine get rabies every two years because of the wildlife they can run into. As pups they get a DA2PPL ( killed parvo)then after 2 years, every two years. I test for heartworm yearly as I take them off it from November to February because of the cold temps. So for each year restart, I have them tested.

    Rabies because it's required by law, Distemper because there is a lot of it in my area. MAYBE Lepto this year because we like to hang out in Santa Cruz a lot and Lepto is starting to get big there.

    Thank you Wolf_Q!

    Rabies. It is the 3 year shot, but Rhode Island doesn't recognize it, so it is only good for 2 years.

    Not sure what I will get for Sugar in future.
