Happy pup settled with you been to vet for a visit no jab, goes in a week or two later much more relaxed and happy with the world and less likely ot have a reaction.

I know this means you have delayed bing able to get your puppy out and about but it should be a happier baby.

IF your breeder's vet uses the same vaccinations then you could consider having the first one but I would leave it after all a couple of weeks isn't goning to make a difference to 12 or so years of a happy healthy life.

only my opinion folks
totally agree
