Vaccines and Wormings
Most puppies are born with worms
that they obtain from the mother through the placenta and in the milk.
Therefore, we worm all our puppies at least 2-3 times before they leave. We've
also developed a comprehensive vaccination program for illnesses such as
Parvovirus and Distemper that Yorkshire Terrier puppies are likely to get. All
treatments are recorded on a medical history that is sent with each puppy so
your veterinarian knows what your new member of the family has had.
When you take your puppy to the vet
for the first time, we recommend building a schedule for boosters in the puppy's
future. Some veterinarians will work from our medical record, while others will
completely disregard it. Most of the time, if the dog has not received a shot
close to the time of the vet visit, this is not a serious problem. If, however,
giving a vaccine too soon would be dangerous, we will notify you when you
receive the puppy.
