DHPP is combination vaccine to protect dogs and puppies from four dangerous diseases: canine Distemper, infectious Hepatitis, Parainfluenza, and Parvovirus infection. For puppies, the vaccine is given at 6 to 8 weeks old, and a booster shot is given when the dog is a year old. After that, the vaccine is usually given every three years.
