Annual booster vaccinations are needed throughout your dog’s life to maintain their protection from harmful disease. Some boosters are required every year, while others are needed every three years; this is because the protection they offer becomes less effective over time. The booster vaccinations dogs require are: Boosters for distemper, parvovirus and canine hepatitis every three years Boosters for leptospirosis and kennel cough every year. Older dogs still need regular booster vaccinations to protect them from potentially fatal diseases, particularly as their immune system can weaken as they get older. Your vet will be able to assess the individual needs of your pet based on their age, overall health and lifestyle to ensure they receive the right vaccinations. Speak with your vet about your older dog’s needs to ensure they stay protected in their later years.
