In the United States, a five month old puppy is old enough to have all his shots, so he should receive his first rabies vaccination as well as the first of three initial vaccines for parvovirus, coronavirus, distemper and adenovirus. This is also a good age to have your puppy neutered or spayed if he/she will not be used for breeding, and to have a heartworm test then be started on heartworm preventative. Prophylactic treatment for hookworms and roundworms can also be done at the same visit.
A new born puppy does not need any shots. The pup needs his Mother's milk which contains natural antibodies which protect the pup from things like distemper, parvo, etc. The pup should remain with his Mom until around 8 weeks of age. You normally start their vaccines at around age 7-8 weeks, repeat at 10 weeks, then again at 13 weeks then final vaccines at around 6 months. You of course would be taking your pup into see a Veterinarian who can guide you through this and keep an eye on your pup's health. He or she will also need deworming, etc.
You should start your puppy at 7 or 8 weeks of age (some start at 6 weeks) with the first vaccine, DHLP/Parvo, 2nd at 10 or 11 weeks, 3rd at 13 or 14 weeks of age & a last DHLP/Parvo at 16 weeks. Rabies at 4-6 months. You should be taking your dog in to be checked out by your Veterinarian for a good check up, dewormings (bring in feces sample), talk about vaccinations, talk about giving Heartworm Preventative (once a month) and once a month flea & tick protection such as Frontline, Advantix, etc. Your Veterinarian will help you out with all of these necessary things that must be done in order to have a healthy pet.
Ask your vet, likely to get the first rabies shot, heart worm, and if from a shelter kennel cough.
Dogs need to get their first booster shots at 8 weeks of age. After leaving their mom if they are not vaccinated they can get diseases like parvovirus which is fatal and caninevirus which is like parvo but not fatal. Talk to your vet and he will explain the shots that your puppy needs.

first answer: I think you should have shots every year. second answer: No. more details: Whether or not pet rabbits need shots depends on where you live. In the UK, for instance, they do.
