For the health of our puppies we have a strict schedule of protection!
Each puppy receives deworming at 2, 3, 4, & 6 weeks of age. They receive pyrantel pamoate and piperazine.
At 4 weeks old the puppies receive their intranasal bordatella and canine influenza vaccination.
At 4 weeks we also administer a series of Albon for 10 days.
This is to help ward off the development of Cocci which is common in puppies.
Puppies can have cocci develop, even when there are no signs of it in the mother or father.
Cocci can be a cell in a mothers blood stream that is unrecognizable in veternarian testing.
This cell is what takes advantage of the young immune system in the puppy and becomes cocci.
Cocci if treated is nothing to worry about, but when unknown or unseen in some vet testing,
it can cause a young puppy all kinds of illness and trouble. We use the Albon to be sure this
is not a problem that will come up for you when you bring your puppy home.
At 5 weeks the puppies are treated with metronizadole to be sure to ward off the threat of Giardia.
Although Giardia is a puppy illness which threatens all pups in their young age.
At 6 weeks our puppies visit the vet for their "clean bill of health" and their first puppy shots are received.
ONLY the 6 way, no LEPTO!
We want your puppy experience to be an experience that is happy and fun, not one that is taking you to the vet on a daily basis!!
At RockRoll kennel we believe that the new puppy/dog buyer/owner is responsibility for their own choices. Part of being a responsible dog owner, is researching the different breeds before making the decision to purchase a puppy/dog, and educating ones self on the various common concerns of the breed chosen.
Being a responsible pet owner also means realizing that puppies/dogs are living breathing beings, subject to much of what we as humans are subject to as far as their needs and health issues are concerned. They can get sick just like us!
At RockRoll Kennel, we strive to produce the BEST in conformation, health and temperament! The responsible and rational puppy/dog owner needs to understand that although we as breeders strive for the best and most of our dogs are perfectly healthy, not all dogs produced... with any breed by any breeder will be perfect.
All we ask, is that you be a responsible, reality minded dog owner who will love and care for your new baby, and do what ever is in your power to take care of his/her needs.
