What does dhpp stand for?

Distemper, Hepatitis, Parainfluenza and Parvovirus. The DHPP vaccine is used to help prevent these diseases from affecting your dog.


Does dhpp need to be given every year to dogs?

The DHPP is a vaccine the protects against Distemper, Hepititis, Parainfluenza, and parvovirus. When you get a new puppy at eight weeks it will need to make several trips to the vet for his initial DHPP and then a 2-3 booster shots. After his final booster of DHPP it will be a year until he needs another one. From there on you can choose to get either the one year DHPP or the three year vaccine.


Is the DHPP vaccine for dogs good for 3 years?

No, it's one year. It's the rabies vaccine that is good for three years--provided the vet uses the three-year kind. I understand for puppies and some other dogs the one-year rabies vaccine is better. Check with your vet.

Yes you can but the Rabies vaccination has to be given by a Veterinarian. It is a killed virus and the DHLP/Parvo are from killed or modified live viruses. Perfectly safe but have your Veterinarian do the vaccinations.
