I just got a Miniature Pinscher and it has been vaccinated for Parvovirus and Canine Distemper that caused me RM80. This is called 6 in 1. I was advised by the vet to vaccinate the dog again 1 month later for booster jab. I'm not sure how many jabs a dog need and how frequent. Can anyone advise? I'm planning to jab the dog myself in the following months if I get the right kind of vaccination medicine name and also the correct schedule. My uncle jab the dog himself. Advice?
it's definitely not advisable to vaccinate a pup urself. whenever u bring ur pup to the vet, the vets will check ur dog's temperature n weight of dog before giving him any dosages.
if ur dog is sick, the vet'll less likely vaccinate ur dog coz his antibody is low. if u do it yourself u might not know whether ur dog is fit for a vaccination or not...plus the amont of dosages.
there's always a reason for the existance of a vet..if we can do it ourself, why do we need one? unless or until u have the knowledge or qualification of a vetenarian, i suggest if not better leave the job to the professionals
As I learnt fr a vet,the vacc medi has to be kept at a temp btw 2-7 degree celcius...lets say if the storage is not appropriate, no matter how many vacc u take also not effective...
anyway I read abt vacc fr this site...u can read more abt it...:)
