We strongly recommend that you have your pup vaccinated with *Paraninfluenza-Bordetella Bronchiseptica*, even if it is the only pet in your home. We have often heard that some vets do not recommend this vaccine when there are no other pets in the home. The problem with this, is that should your pup be out in public places such as the vet office, pet shop, neighbor’s yard, the sidewalk, the park, training class, the groomer, or a boarding kennel, he/she is unprotected. There is a time frame before the vaccine becomes effective in your pup. Check with your veterinarian about this to be sure you have given the vaccine enough time to be able to protect your pup.
WORMING SCHEDULE
Your puppy was de-wormed at 2 weeks with Pyrantel, at 3 weeks with Pyrantel, at 5 weeks with Pyrantel, and at 7 weeks with Pyrantel (or Piperzine). If your pup was still with us at 9 weeks he/she was again de-wormed with Pyrantel (or Piperzine).
In spite of our very aggressive deworming program, we ask that you bring a stool sample (puppy poop) to your vet when you bring your puppy in for his or her check-ups. It is very important to keep your puppy free of all internal parasites!
HEARTWORM
Consult your vet about putting your puppy on a program of heartworm preventative as soon as possible. Heartworm can be a terrible experience for you and your pup. Have your vet thoroughly explain the use of these products. Do not assume you fully understand these preventatives.
NOTE: This vaccination schedule must be adhered to and completed. Not doing so may affect our guarantee.
OUR USE OF CORID
We have been providing a product called Corid in the drinking water of all the dogs on our kennel property for many years. We feel that it has been very effective in preventing the occurrence of coccidia in our pups. We have not had any significant number of calls from our puppy buyers regarding the presence of coccidia in a Shewana puppy. In fact, our records indicate very few pups being diagnosed with the problem. This is remarkable.
We are giving you this information to assist in assessing the cause of puppy diarrhea should this occur after you bring your pup to his/her new home. Most likely, it will not be a coccidia problem and precious time could be wasted by treating for the wrong cause of the stomach upset. It is a commonly held belief that pups purchased from a breeding kennel are prone to exhibiting coccidia. However, we have worked very hard and spent thousands of dollars to prevent this illness in our puppies. We are confident that our track record speaks for itself.
NOTE: All Shewana pups and Dams are raised on Corid to prevent coccidia.
