Ask to your vetanarian about it. Because it does depend on what breed it is, I think. But their teeth might not be strong enough to chew on it because it might be hard. My 3 year old Maltese didnt have strong teeth until she turned 1 and a half.

At 6 to 8 weeks of age, a puppy's first shots need only be Distemper, Parvovirus, Hepatitis, these need to be repeated every three to four weeks until about four months of age. With the last round of vaccines (at 12-14 weeks of age) a Rabies vaccine should be given along with the other three.

Talk to your vet about your puppy's potential exposure to other diseases, and if vaccines for those diseases are needed in the area where you live.

After a vaccine is given, immunity is not immediate. It takes about five to ten days to become effective.

they get their first round of shots but you should also get a parvo shot at the same time. especially since it is so deadly to pups.
