New puppy - booster for older dog?

Our Lucy is 4 now and other than her puppy injections she hasn't had any boosters. However, we are getting a new puppy in about 4 weeks time so would it be a good idea for Lucy to get a booster at this stage?

Many thanks

Hello Carole depending on the vaccination Lucy had initially (if it was the 3 year protocol or not) and exactly when you had it, I think you may find you can't just have a booster you will need to have the full two part full vaccination again if the vaccination regime has lapsed but you will need to discuss that with your vet.

No one can really advise you on this, it is up to you .
Good luck with you new puppy
