As society progresses, more and more people have pets, and pet owners are paying great attention to the health of their animals, especially their awareness of animal immunity. However, most pet owners do not know much about vaccines and don’t even know when dogs should be vaccinated. So when is the best time to vaccinate? Below we will briefly introduce some issues related to dog vaccination. Let’s take a look.

Actually, vaccines are a kind of inactivated virus that, after special processing, can enhance the dog's antiviral ability, help our dogs get sick less often, and activate some immune responses inside the dog’s body. These responses produce antibodies that can prevent viral invasion and enhance the dog's resistance to viruses. This helps us have a healthy dog.

What we need to do is vaccinate the dog. Ideally, dogs should receive their first vaccine around the 50th day after birth, followed by another vaccination within a few months. We should also regularly check the dog's vaccines every year. Generally, adult dogs need annual vaccination. Vaccinating too early may cause the vaccine in the dog’s body to be lost, or even cause the opposite effect of the vaccine, so we should avoid improper vaccination that could harm the dog and make the vaccine ineffective.

Dogs usually need multiple vaccine shots. First, the initial vaccine is given around the 8th week after birth, followed by a second vaccine at 12 weeks. After another week, the dog should receive a third vaccine shot. This is the proper way to vaccinate dogs. Also, when vaccinating dogs, make sure to go to a regular veterinary hospital, and pay attention to whether the dog is healthy. Vaccination is not recommended for unhealthy dogs. Finally, we wish your dogs good health.
