Rolin Ridge expects that you will have routine veterinary
care provided for your new dog.
Routine health care should at least include remaining
vaccinations against distemper, hepatitis leptospirosis, and
parainfluenza (DHLP) and Parvo, depending on at what age you acquired your
pup, and DHLP boosters at yearly interval thereafter.
Parvo vaccinations should be given as recommended by your
vet. For dogs participating in dog shows, obedience or conformation
classes, or those who are frequently boarded, your vet may have a
different protocol.
If Corona virus is a problem in your area, your vet will
recommend vaccinations against it also.
Rabies shots are
given at one to three-year intervals, depending on the type of vaccine used.
Heartworm
tests and stool checks should be done yearly, and the dog de-wormed as
necessary.
After having your vet check for heart worms, give
heart worm preventive daily or monthly, as directed.
