    Frequently asked questions

    When can puppies go outside after vaccines?

    Many vets advise waiting until about a week after the final puppy vaccine, but supervised socialisation in safe spaces can usually begin earlier. Ask your vet.

    Do vaccine schedules differ between countries?

    Yes. Vaccines, timing and legal requirements such as rabies differ by country and region, and sometimes by vet. Use the typical timeline above as a guide and always follow your own vet.

    What vaccines does a puppy need?

    Core vaccines usually protect against distemper, adenovirus (hepatitis) and parvovirus, often given together as DHPP, plus rabies where required. Non-core vaccines such as Bordetella or leptospirosis depend on lifestyle and region. Your vet will advise.

    How many puppy vaccine shots are needed?

    Puppies typically receive a series of shots every two to four weeks starting around 6 to 8 weeks of age until about 16 weeks, then a booster at 12 to 16 months. The exact schedule varies, so follow your vet.

    When can my puppy go outside after vaccines?
