When Baloo came to live with us on July 1, the previous owners gave me an envelope with an AKC app and an index card with a bunch of dates and a sticker on it. They told me he was due for his shots by the end of the month (July). No problem. He has an appointment for this Friday (late, I know, but I've been trying to help him over his fear of the car). I pulled out the index card, and on closer examination I noticed that most of the dates were for worm treatments that were done by the breeder. There's only one record (the sticker) of a vaccination for Distemper and Parvo from April 29. Handwritten on the back of the card, what I thought said "@9 wks, vet gave next booster shot," actually says "@9 wks, vet give (as in "to give") next booster shot." They apparently never took him for his second set of shots. I can't get a hold of them to verify as they have moved and their phone # has changed. This is totally my fault, but the wife sounded so knowledgeable, I took her at her word. I can't imagine why she wouldn't have taken him for his next vaccination. If she had just told me, I would have taken him the next day. I feel like such an idiot. Should I just start from scratch and get him dosed once a month for the next three months? I know I have to sneak a rabies in there somewhere also.
I'm not exactly sure how it works but hopefully someone else can explain it...
