As a puppy the dog should got a 5-way Shot at 6 and 9 weeks of age. Then at 12 and 15 weeks you give them a 7-way Shot. After that check with your local laws but always get a yearly booster.
In Vermont the boosters are now every three years the same as for rabies boosters.

Why is it important to give dogs there shots?
Shots protect dogs against many communicable diseases. I gave my puppy a shot last night to protect against 7 viruses, two of which are distemper and parvovirus. I had a dog once who had distemper (very contagious from strays) and watched my poor dog go from a happy healthy dog to a sunken eyed sick animal in just three days. There is no cure usually if your dog gets these diseases. This is why puppy shots are so important. They have immunity from their mother's milk until they're weaned, and then its important to get them immunized. They need another shot in a few weeks. If your puppy never had his shots, its never too late. I also lost a favorite pet from parvovirus. They get sunken in eyes and diarhhea. There is sometimes a cure but mostly they die from this. If you live in a neighborhood where there are a lot of stray dogs running around like we do, you need to get your dog their shots. Rabies vaccine is also very important. It is one disease that can spread to humans, and it is a very bad way to die. If a person gets bitten by an animal with rabies, they must undergo painful injections to keep from getting the disease.
Can your pitbull be healthy without any shots?
Your Dog will not necessarily become ill if it does not receive its shots, but I would strongly advise that you do ensure your Dog gets all of its vaccinations. These shots will prevent your Dog from catching many of the deadly diseases and viruses that affect Dogs, such as rabies, parvovirus and bordetella - among others. Your veterinarian will need to give your Dog a booster shot every year to keep your Dog protected. Better safe than sorry!
