Best Answer

Vaccinations are an essential part of preventive health care, from puppies to adults. These puppy shots are also called five in one or DHLP-P vaccinations because they are a combination vaccine that will immunize against five very common but potentially deadly diseases.

A minimum of two multivalent vaccinations given three to four weeks apart are required for every dog or puppy over three months old. An additional vaccination against rabies is also necessary. Vaccinations against coronavirus, Bordatella, or Lyme disease are based on owner's needs and veterinarian's advice.

For young puppies, vaccinations usually start at six-to-eight weeks of age and are given every three-to-four weeks until the puppy is 16 weeks of age.

When can you take your puppy pitbull for his first walk?

The first walks are to teach the puppy how to walk right. AS SOON AS he puts tension on the leash, turn 180 degrees from the direction he is pulling and walk briskly in the new direction, using the command "with me". When he turns to follow you, praise him ("good with me") and give him a treat. As long as he keeps slack in the leash, praise him. As soon as he begins to pull, turn and go again. You must turn and go as soon as your dog begins to pull. DO NOT allow him to pull you for several steps before you turn and go. Walking quickly, with lots of jolly talk, will help focus the dog's attention.

Is it safe to take a puppy a bath without her shots?

Yes, it is safe to bathe a puppy who has not had its shots as long as the tub/water has not been used by another dog without their shots. To be safe, you should clean the tub thoroughly before and after her bath if you have other unvaccinated dogs. However a major concern would be the age of the puppy: Young pups aren't able to retain body heat very well so getting them wet can put them at risk of hypothermia. Make sure the water is the correct temperature (lukewarm), the room they will be drying off in is very warm and that you dry them thoroughly. Personally, I would try my best to avoid bathing them.
