Dog What is DLPP?
DLPP stands for Distemper, Leptospirosis, Parvovirus and Parainfluenza. A DLPP is a combination vaccine given to prevent these diseases. Parvo and Distemper especially are highly contagious. The only one you may not need to vaccinate for is leptospirosis. Dogs can get lepto from ponds, run off, ditches, stale standing water. Lepto vaccine also has a higher chance of causing an allergic reaction, so it is wise to not give it unless your dog absolutely need it. It is now known to be more prudent to vaccinate your dog every three years as opposed to the previous practise of every year.
Why do 10 year old dogs need corona booster?
It depends on if there has been an outbreak of Corona in your area. Check with your Veterinarian. Keep in mind that your dog is older now and his or her immune system is not at its finest. Be sure to booster your dog once a year for the standard stuff, DHLP/Parvo (Distemper, Hepatitis, Lepto, Parainfluenza & Parvo).
What is 7 in one shots for dogs called?
DHLP/Parvo vaccine. You can also get the vaccine with Corona added too. The vaccine is for Distemper, Hepatitis, Lepto, Parainfluenza & Parvo. A pup needs a series of vaccines (check with your Veterinarian) and thereafter, a booster once a year.

Is it normal for small dogs to have reactions to rabie and distemper shots?
Any size dog can have a reaction to vaccines. It is rare to see it with a Rabies vaccine as that is a killed vaccine. With the DHLP/Parvo vaccine sometimes, but rarely, the dog will react to the Lepto part of this combination vaccine, Distemper, Hepatitis, Lepto, Parainfluenza & Parvo. If your pet had a true reaction such as swelling up within 5-10 minutes of receiving the vaccination, then just leave out the lepto part of the vaccine the next time your pet is due for the next vaccination. Just ask your Vet about this or if you give your own vaccinations, get a vaccine without the lepto in it.
What are the possible side effects of distemper vaccination in dogs?
My dog just got her distemper shot 52 hours ago. She is really lethargic, wion't go down stairs, won't eat or drink, and when I rub her back,right near her nipples, the skin tenses up. We hope she'll be ok, but we don't know yet. We don't know where on her body the shot was given. If anyone has some advice, please give it. This does not sound like a reaction to a distemper vaccine (DHLP/Parvo). A true reaction to a distemper vaccine would be swelling occurring within 5-10 minutes of receiving the vaccine. The vaccine is always given under the loose skin on the neck area. This sounds like something entirely different and you should take your pet into your Veterinarian as soon as possible. Again a true anaphlyatic reaction would be swelling within 5-10 minutes of giving the vaccine and that is usually caused from the Lepto part of the vaccine. When you have the next vaccine, ask your Vet to leave out the lepto part if the dog has had a true anaphlyatic reaction. Please have your dog checked out immediately by your Veterinarian.
How long do you have to wait to bring your dog in your house if another dog with distemper was in your house?
Distemper is very contagious! You should clean all areas that the previous dog with distemper was in or on. Use a cleaning solution of one part bleach to 10 parts water. Wipe down everything you can. The best solution is to make sure the new dog is up to date on their distemper vaccinations (DHLP/Parvo a combination vaccine against Distemper, Hepatitis, Lepto, Parainfluenza and Parvo). Make sure if this is an adult dog, that they have had their Distemper vaccination within the last 6 months, if not then then revaccinate again in 2-3 weeks. Wait about 3-4 weeks from that last distemper vaccine before bringing in the new dog. If it is a puppy that is coming in, that could be bad. You just never know for sure when the puppy has built up enough immunity as the Dam's antibodies could be interfering with the distemper vaccines up through 4-5 months. That is why you vaccinate a pup starting at 7-8 weeks, then again 3 weeks later, then again 3 weeks later, then the last one to be given at 4 months. Distemper is a shame to see these days when we have vaccines to prevent that. It is a horrible virus that causes a lot of pain, seizures, etc. etc. Very painful way to die.
What does the root word lepto mean?
The root word 'lepto' means 'slender.'
Can a dog get leptospirosis from the vaccine?
Leptospirosis is spread mainly by contact with water or soil contaminated by the urine of infected rodents and wildlife. If your dog isn't outside unsupervised, or doesn't ever drink from puddles, streams or rivers or has contact with dead animals, it's probably safe not to vaccinate for Lepto. With any vaccine, there is always the chance that the dog might contract the disease that the vaccine was supposed to protect against, or possibly have some other a side effect. This a slim chance, the protection that most dogs get from being vaccinated usually outweigh the risks. But in answer to your question, no, the vaccine doesn't cause the dog to get Lepto. Best of luck!

What vaccinations do you give a German shepherd?
2nd Answer: In simpler language: Starting at around 6-8 weeks of age, the first DHLP/Parvo vaccinations should be given. This consists of Distemper, Heptatis, Lepto, Parainfluenza & Parvo. The Lepto portion can be left out if the pup under 8 weeks of age, but this is just my opinion. Then be sure to include the Lepto at 8 weeks of age & thereafter. Your Veterinarian is your best guide at when these vaccinations should be given. I give them starting at 6-8 weeks, then 10 weeks, 13 weeks and a final one at 16 weeks of age. Your Veterinarian gives the Rabies at 4 months with a yearly booster 1 year after that, then every 3 years thereafter but check with your State requirements for the Rabies vaccine. Don't forget about deworming your dog too & also putting your dog on a Heartworm preventative year around after being tested first plus a monthly topical flea & tick protectant such as Frontline Plus or Advantix II, etc. Please take your dog or pup into be checked out by your Veterinarian and discuss all of this with him or her. 1st Answer: There is a vaccines protocol for dogs set by the American Animal Hospital Association. The specific breed doesn't matter, the recommended vaccines are the same for all dogs: Rabies vaccine is now recommended at 3-year or greater intervals. In the case of the non-rabies "core" vaccines (Core vaccines are vaccines which ALL dogs, regardless of circumstances, should receive) immunity lasts at least 5 years for distemper and parvo, and at least 7 years for adenovirus. CORE VACCINES: Canine Distemper Canine Parvo Canine Adenovirus Rabies Non-core vaccines are those that are required by only those dogs whose location, environment or lifestyle places them at risk of contracting specific infections. Talk to your vet to see if any of these are needed. NON-CORE VACCINES: Measles Vaccine Canine Parainfluenza Bordetella Canine Adenovirus Coronavirus Lyme disease vaccine Leptospirosis
