While annual vaccination schedules can vary based on local regulations and your veterinarian's recommendations, many vets suggest that adult dogs, including an 11-year-old corgi, may not need the DHPP (Distemper, Hepatitis, Parvovirus, Parainfluenza) booster every year if they have had a consistent vaccination history. It’s essential to consult with your veterinarian, who can assess your dog's health and lifestyle to determine the best vaccination plan. In some cases, a titer test can be done to check for immunity before deciding on booster shots.

DHPP is combination vaccine to protect dogs and puppies from four dangerous diseases: canine Distemper, infectious Hepatitis, Parainfluenza, and Parvovirus infection.

How often should your dog get a dhpp booster?
You should booster your dog once a year on their DHLP/Parvo vaccines, or at least every other year after the initial series of vaccinations have been given. It is very important to do this as you need to keep their immune system up against these viruses. The only way to stimulate the antibodies being made by your dog's immune system against distemper or parvo or the many other viruses is to give them their booster vaccination once a year. The only way you can tell how high your dog's immunity is to distemper or parvo is to do a titer test and it is very expensive and is not always accurate. Cheaper to give them their booster vaccinations once a year or every other year. Don't forget about Rabies too. It should be done every 3 years or whatever your state requires. Check with your Veterinarian.
