    @helle-devi - I still do not recommend Lepto vaccine. Too many Basenjis have had reaction to it. That said, if you are in an area with high issues with Lepto, you need to weigh averages. Lepto is typically found around standing water and usually from other dogs.... How much of an increase? Is your Basenji usually on leash? And if you decide to get the vaccine I would make sure it is separate from any other vaccines by at least two to three weeks. Then if you have a reaction you know it is from the Lepto shot. Also you should do Titer Test before giving shots (except Rabies since that is required by laws of each state). Many times doing a titer test will show that a dog is fully covered and do not need a booster. My C-Me will be 12 on Christmas Eve. She had her 1yr booster and never has needed one since. My Franie (will be 12 in January) needed a booster at age 9.

    @khanis: This has been this way for quite some time. There hasn't been a difference in the 1 and 3-yr vaccines for as long as I have paid attention to them… True, but so many pet owners are unaware of this fact.

    This is what I do for mine…. 9wks - 1st set of puppy shots (no Lepto, no Corona) I use DHPP 11wks - 2nd set of puppy shots (same as above) 13 wks - 3rd set of puppy shots (same as above) 16 wks - Rabies I do not give anything for kennel cough, as there are so many strains that likely that they will still get it if an outbreak.. (of course if you board or use a doggy daycare, you are required to give it) At 1yr, booster DHPP and Rabies - NOTE: GIVEN AT SEPARATE TIMES, NEVER TOGETHER After that either every 3yrs or do Titers (except Rabies which is every 3yrs and required by law)
