⚠️ Why We Don’t Recommend ‘Early Finish’ Puppy Vaccinations

It’s 🐶 and we’re addressing the recent push for early finish vaccinations in puppies.

Puppies usually get 3 vaccines starting at 6–8 weeks, spaced 4 weeks apart, with the final dose ideally at 16 weeks or later. Why? Maternal antibodies can interfere with vaccine effectiveness, sometimes up to 20 weeks of age.

Vaccinating too early may leave puppies unprotected. There’s no way to know exactly when maternal antibodies wear off, so a full 3-dose schedule ensures protection for all puppies.

Studies show vaccination failure is highest when the final dose is before 16 weeks. Both the WSAVA and AVA recommend completing the full course. In many cases, we even go one step further by recommending and upholding the latest WSAVA guidelines which recommend a booster vaccination at 6 months of age for completeness 🫶🏻

At REDVET, we don’t support early finish vaccines. While convenient, the risks are too high—especially with diseases like parvovirus still common.

Questions? Reach out—we’re always here to help keep your healthy 💖
