Core Vaccines Every Dog Needs
In Indonesia's tropical climate, dogs face unique disease risks. Core vaccines โ Distemper, Parvovirus, Hepatitis, Parainfluenza, and Rabies โ form the foundation of every dog's protection and are required by Indonesian regulations.
Puppy Vaccination Schedule
Puppies should begin vaccinations at 6โ8 weeks of age, with boosters every 3โ4 weeks until 16 weeks. This early schedule builds the immune system before maternal antibodies fade.
Annual Booster Shots
After the initial puppy series, most core vaccines require annual boosters. Some, like the Rabies vaccine, may be given every 1โ3 years depending on the product and local regulations.
Non-Core Vaccines for Indonesia
Leptospirosis is highly relevant in Jakarta due to flooding risks. Bordetella (kennel cough) is recommended for dogs that visit parks, grooming salons, or boarding facilities.
