Puppy Vaccines Assure Wagging Tails and Wet NosesWritten by Charles Burke
When you get a new puppy it is imperative that he receive all his proper puppy vaccines. These protect him from getting diseases if he becomes exposed to them. When pet doctor injects a vaccine into your puppy, it "teaches" pup’s immune system what a disease organism looks like. But vaccine contains only weak or dead versions of organism, so puppy's immune system learns to recognize it, but without danger of serious infection. Later in life, if organism ever attacks, puppy’s immune system is already prepared to fight it off because of vaccine. When a puppy receives a puppy vaccine, his body forms antibodies that can fight that particular disease. With antibody already in puppy’s system, it will have a better chance of fighting off infection. Puppies should receive their puppy vaccines beginning when they are under age of four months. Your vet will know which vaccines to give, and in what order. It's also important to give booster shots. These keep puppy vaccines current. You need to do this so that your puppy's immunity continues to be strong. Some vets have a reminder system, and will phone you or send out a postcard to let you know when it's time for booster shots. However, it's good if you also keep your own records of all shots, medical treatments and puppy vaccines, so you'll know when it’s time.

Good dog care is vitalDog care Accepting responsibility of your new pet friend is truly serious business. Caring for your new best pet friend is rewarding with that I feel good feeling. Love and care is what we all want and our pet friends aren't any different. Teaching our pets tricks, buying toys, supplies, training, collars, crates, clothes is all part of loving kind dog care. The happiness and joy in watching our Charlie dog responding to new obedience house training seems to make us want to do much more for our lovable and charming friend. We've learned a lot about health problems and symptoms, how to's of medication, dog nutrition and keeping him healthy. Along with that we've also gotten a tooth brush for dental care. I mean it's no less than bringing up a little child. After all isn't that what puppies are? Little kids as well?
