Dogs require annual booster vaccines throughout their lives, this is to ensure maximum protection against life-threatening diseases. We base our choice of vaccines on the lifestyle of the dog rather than age. Annual boosters usually cover leptospirosis and kennel cough. However, distemper, parvovirus and canine hepatitis are usually needed every three years. Therefore, a dog would need a vaccine every year to have maximum protection against diseases. The first time they are vaccinated they have a course of two injections, usually at eight and 10 weeks old. They then require a booster pet vaccination at 6 or 12 months of age. A yearly booster is recommended to keep immunity up to date. As your puppy grows, you must ensure you regularly keep up to date with annual injections as the initial immunity may fade leaving them at risk.

We base our choice of vaccines on the lifestyle of the dog rather than age. Annual boosters usually cover leptospirosis and kennel cough (can be given every six months). However, distemper, parvovirus and canine hepatitis are usually needed every three years. Therefore, a dog would need a vaccine every year to have maximum protection against diseases. St Clair Veterinary Group recommends that yearly boosters are obtained to ensure immunisation is up to date.
