"CHEERS SIMPLE 2-3-4 VACCINATION SCHEDULE"
2 months (8weeks)= 1st dose 5in1 NOBIVAC Vaccine (by Intervet)
3 months (12weeks)= 2nd and final dose 5in1 NOBIVAC Vaccine (by Intervet)
*5in1 booster dose to be given after one year then lifetime immunity is achieved, others would recommend booster doses every three to five years for actively bred dogs and NOT ANNUALLY
4 months (16 weeks)= Anti-Rabies Vaccine, SINGLE DOSE
*Anti-Rabies booster repeated annually as required by Law
Our CHEERS SIMPLE 2-3-4 VACCINATION SCHEDULE is administered to our puppies bred from bitches with updated immunization status (current on booster shots)also using theNOBIVAC brand by Intervet; As per manufacturer's recommendations, NOBIVAC brand of vaccine can protectively immunize a puppy if the second dose is given at 12 weeks of age and is THE LAST DOSE of a series of only 2 shots (if started at 8weeks of age).
*Coronavirus and *Bordetella bronchiseptica (Kennel Cough) are NOT CORE Vaccines.Routine immunization of these types of vaccines are not recommended by the AAHA (American Animal Hospital Association). *Coronavirus is not fatal if your puppy is immunized from Parvovirus
VACCINATION NEWSFLASH (CIMDA support) RE; J. DODDS VACCINE PROTOCOL.
NEW PRINCIPLES OF IMMUNOLOGY
Dogs and cats immune systems mature fully at 6 mos. of age. If a
modified live virus vaccine is given after 6 mos. of age it produces
lifetime immunity for the pet. (i.e. canine distemper, parvo, feline
distemper). If another MLV vaccine is given one year later the
antibodies from the first vaccine neutralize the antigens of the
second vaccine and there is little or no effect. The titer is
not "boosted" nor are more memory cells induced. Not only are annual
boosters for parvo and distemper unnecessary, they subject the pet to
potential risks of allergic reactions and immune-mediated hemolytic
anemia. There is no scientific dowowentation to back up label claims
for annual administration of MLV vaccines.
1. Puppies receive antibodies through their mothers milk that last for
8-14weeks.
2. Puppies and kittens should NOT be vaccinated at LESS than 8 weeks.
Maternal immunity will neutralize the vaccine and little protection
(0-38%) will be produced.
3. Vaccination at 6 weeks will, however, DELAY the timing of the first
highly effective vaccine.
4. Vaccinations given 2 weeks apart SUPPRESS rather than stimulate the
immune system. A series of vaccinations is given starting at 8 weeks
and given 3-4 weeks apart up to 16 weeks of age. Another vaccination
given sometime after 6 mos. of age will (usually at 1 yr. 4 mos.)
provide LIFETIME IMMUNITY.
“Effective Immunization is NOT achieved from FREQUENT vaccinations but it is in the CORRECT/OPTIMUM SPACING OF 3 -4WEEK INTERVALS in between shots for a high level of antibody protection produced from the vaccination” –Report of the AAHA (American Animal Hospital Association) TASK FORCE: 2003 Canine Vaccine Guidelines, Recommendations And Supporting Literature.
The evidence based medicine recommendation is at 3-4 week intervals in between vaccinations.
The critical factor for a successfully protective immunization schedule is in the TIMING OF THE FIRST DOSE of the vaccine. Never TOO EARLY and Never TOO FREQUENTLY!!!
