Prevention and veterinary monitoring

Prevention, what a wonderful word, as the saying goes prevention is better than cure!

1. Prevention: vaccination and antiparasitic treatments

With us, each puppy receives a rigorous care protocol from the first weeks of life.
Vaccination follows classic veterinary recommendations:

A first injection at 8 weeks (CHPPiL) A booster at 12 weeks, then at 16 weeks, then every year.

Rabies vaccination is not mandatory in France; it can be carried out from 12 weeks of age depending on the puppy's destination. It is mandatory if the dog has to leave French territory, PLEASE NOTE this is valid for 21 days after the injection. Depending on the brand of vaccine, it must be renewed every 1 to 3 years.

Recommended vaccination schedule

Deworming is performed every two weeks until the age of 8 weeks, then every month until the age of 6 months. After that, a quarterly or biannual schedule is recommended depending on living conditions. It is recommended to vary the molecules used.

External antiparasitic treatments (fleas, ticks) are also implemented depending on the season and the environment.

We provide an up-to-date health record, with all the information necessary for monitoring.

2. Prevention: veterinary monitoring and puppy development

Veterinary monitoring is ongoing throughout the puppy's growth. Each puppy is examined several times by our veterinarian, from birth until it leaves for its new family.
This includes:

Dental check, cardiac and respiratory auscultation, abdominal palpation, mobility and balance examination. A veterinary certificate is issued upon purchase of the puppy.

We remain available to support adoptive families in monitoring their puppy.
