What shots do puppies need?
Hi!
We got a new puppy from a neighbor and they said to make sure that she gets her shots? What is that about? How many shots do puppies need and what kind do you have to get?

Your vet will tell you. Your puppy will never several rounds of shots and booster throughout it's early life.
In most places, you are required by law to have your dog up to date on their rabies vaccination. Canine Distemper and Parvovirus are two others that are usually really mandatory, since those illness can kill a dog very quickly.
There will also be vaccines that your vet may recommend in addition to those core ones depending on where you live. I live in the city now, so those core vaccines are most of what my dog needs, but when we lived in the country there were a bunch more we got because of all the swamp water and other animals like coyotes running around.
