Booster.. Manufacturers Recommendations.

Just had a look at the dogs vaccination certificates and our Vet uses booster vaccinations called Vanguard, does anyone know where I could find out what the Manufacturers recommendations are with regard to how often these should be given..ie yearly or every 3-4 years. Thanks

Vanguard 7 is made by Pfizer

An injection in two fractions:
Vanguard DA2Pi: freeze-dried fraction containing live attenuated canine distemper virus, Snyder Hill strain ≥ 103.0 CCID50, live attenuated canine adenovirus Type 2, Manhattan strain ≥ 103.2 CCID50 and live attenuated parainfluenzavirus, NL-CPI-5 strain ≥ 106.0 CCID*50.

Vanguard CPV-L: liquid fraction containing live attenuated canine parvovirus, NL-35-D strain, low passage ≥ 107.0 CCID50, inactivated Leptospira canicola ≥ PD40 and inactivated Leptospira icterohaemorrhagiae ≥ PD40.



Booster Vaccination:
Leptospiral components – annual booster vaccination is recommended.
Viral components – annual booster vaccination is recommended. However, should Veterinary Surgeons conduct a risk-benefit analysis for individual animals to determine the frequency of revaccination with Vanguard 7, they should be aware of the following information. Serological data has indicated that most dogs, when given at least the first annual booster, can maintain protective levels of immunity to the viral components of Vanguard 7 for up to 4 years.

So does that mean if you have a puppy and it has it first three injections, does it need to have a booster the following year and then none for another 4 years or is the puppy injections enough and then again in 4 years...thanks

I think it is suggesting that after the first booster, you should be able to get protection for up to 4 years. Remember that if a dog gets a really severe infection of something else, the immunity conferred by the immunisations may be reduced.
