Vaccinations -Dew Claws

   Vaccinations   -   Worming   -   Dewclaws  

Puppies are vaccinated at 7 weeks of age. 
They need to get their initial check once home with you.  You will then set the schedule with your doctor for future visits.

During the time from the first vaccination and the last, your Saint is not one hundred percent protected against diseases.

Prevent diseases, that is why we have vaccines. In order to be effective, these vaccines must be given as a series. The routine vaccination schedule will be set for you when you see the Vet for the puppy visit.

Ask that you get on the list to get reminders in the mail from the Animal Hospital.
 

DewClaws

The Dewclaws have been removed as this is normal protocal. Here are a few photos that show the process.  Many individuals think this practise is cruel, unnessary, however, if you have seen some of the results when they are ripped out, broken and or torn from the foot, you might change your mind.
Believe, me when I saw I hate having it done but I do know it is for the best.
If I doubted that for one moment, I would not have the procedure performed.

We have domesticated these Canines. 
They are are carpet and not in the woods.  They can easily get caught on something.  I go with safety.   All dewclaws are removed and that is not optional.

Your pup has been wormed and does not have worms!
Intestinal parasites are common in puppies. Puppies can become
infected with parasites before they are born or later through their
mother's milk. The microscopic examination of a stool sample will
usually determine the presence of intestinal parasites. This exam is
highly recommended for all puppies. Deworming is done then and
repeated in about three weeks. It is important that it be repeated in
about three weeks because the deworming medication only kills the
adult worms. Within 3-4 weeks, the larval stages will have become
adults and will need to be treated. Dogs remain susceptible to
reinfection with hookworms and roundworms. Periodic deworming
throughout the dog's life is Vet recommended for dogs who go
outdoors.

***   When you get your baby home you will want to have your Vet check up. 

Please, let us know that you  have been given a clean bill of health  :) 
An email is fine, we want to share the news!!!
This is a part of the puppy adoption contract.***

Your Saint Bernard puppy
