Re: injections?

I'd say that if the breeder hasn't had the vaccinations done, when you take the pup to your own vet for a check up, which I'd recommend so the vet can make sure there's no problems, it's likely they'll give the first vaccination then.

I got my pup at 10 weeks old, I took him to the vets two days after I got him and he had his first injection then.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

Re: injections?

Hi,
6 weeks of age is a little early to be leaving mum and litter mates,is there any reason why the breeder is letting them go before the recommended 8 weeks ?

Both mine had there injections at 8 and 10 weeks,they were also chipped at 10 weeks.

Some do, some dont. Depends on whether they vaccinate at the same time.

Vets fees are all part and parcel of puppy and dog ownership.

Mine didn't charge me for a check up but not sure if it works differently for other vets.
Also paid £45 for both injections. Money was paid when I took Sky for her first injection at 10 weeks and her second one was done at 12 weeks

6 weeks is a bit early to be leaving its mother,
dont think any vet will vaccinate before 8 weeks and some are 10, x

Well all vets are different, my vets didnt charge for the check up as he had a vaccination at the same time, but as others have said, vet fees are all part of dog ownership.
