My Puppy Had Second Vaccination Last Wednesday, Can He Go Out For A Walk?

Hi there, After the second immunisation it is recommended by most vaccine manufactures that a period of not less than 14 days (two weeks) is allowed before you walk your puppy. When your puppy is walked it will be potentially exposed to infection and this delay in exposing him/her is to allow the vaccine to 'educate' his/her' imune system so that it recognises and starts fighting potentially devestating infections.
I hope that helps and have a great time with your pup'.

Vaccine prodicol set up by the university of davis, ca advises 1st dhlpp vaccine at 6-8 weeks of age, second dhlpp vaccine at 10-12 weeks of age and third dhlpp vaccine at 14-16 weeks of age. It is also suggested by many veterinarians that you wait one week after the last vaccine before taking your pet on walks in the park or any where there may a lot of pet activity. the rabies vaccine is usually given around 16 weeks of age as well. your pet is not protected against parvo, distemper, hepatitis, lepto and parinfluenza before the complete series of vaccines so please don't take a chance these are all very serious illnesses.
