Can a Puppy With a Runny Nose Get Vaccinated?

Can a Puppy With a Runny Nose Get Vaccinated?

Dogs showing any sign of illnessβ€”such as a runny nose, sneezing, vomiting, or diarrheaβ€”should not be vaccinated, because live-attenuated vaccines can worsen an existing condition. Puppies need to be at least 45 days old for their first shot and about 3 months old for the rabies vaccine, with deworming spaced roughly a week apart. After vaccination, observe the dog for 30 minutes, avoid baths for 7 days, and confirm immunity with an antibody test around 15 days later.
