When dogs go to the hospital for vaccination, pet doctors usually choose the appropriate vaccine according to the age of the dog and the local situation. The more common vaccines are the two vaccines, the five vaccines and the six vaccines. What are the differences between these vaccines?
Different numbers represent different types of diseases to be prevented
At present, the common dog vaccines are two joint vaccine, five joint vaccine (4 kinds of virus against five diseases), six joint vaccine (5 kinds of virus against six diseases), eight joint vaccine (7 kinds of virus against eight diseases), and rabies vaccine.
① Single vaccine: prevention of rabies virus
What vaccines should dogs receive?
The core vaccine must be injected with
Two and five are core vaccines. Core vaccines mean that the diseases contained are the most harmful to dogs and all dogs must be injected.
Non-core vaccine selective injection
The leptospira and coronavirus contained in the six and eight vaccines are non-core vaccines and can be injected according to the location of the dog.
Leptospira mostly occurs in tropical and subtropical regions, such as southern China, Hainan, Yunnan and other humid areas in the south, you can choose to inject six joint seedlings. If the dog in the north, less incidence of leptospira, you can choose only five joint seedlings. But the specific vaccine should be injected should be subject to the doctor's arrangement.
Erlian Miao, only puppies need it.
Breast milk contains maternal antibodies. Dogs eat breast milk, and the maternal antibodies ingested can neutralize the virus in the vaccine, resulting in the dog being vaccinated but not producing antibodies, which is immune failure. However, the two-way vaccine can break through the interference of maternal antibodies to make dogs resistant. So if the dog is not weaned, or weaning time is less than 15 days, generally choose the first injection of two combined vaccine.
For example, we often see the immunization program 45 days old to start the vaccine, two five five five rabies. More than 2 months with five five five five rabies.
Two-joint seedlings are generally more expensive than five-joint seedlings. If dogs have been weaned for a long time, for example, dogs have been weaned for 3 months, there is little difference between parvovirus and canine distemper antibodies produced by two-joint seedlings and five-joint seedlings, and it is not necessary to use two-joint seedlings.
The most cost-effective immunization program
Relative to the price, the most common price is the lowest, usually choose 3 needles of five seedlings injection, special needs must use six or eight. And unweaned dogs must have the first needle with two.
