Georgia ShihTzu Palace follows a conservative vaccine protocol, protecting both the short term and long term health of our beloved pets. Our first goal is to build immunity with proper healthy nutrition and cleaniness of environment.

Our schedule is a combo vaccine of Parvo, Adeno2, Distemper & Parainfluenza at 8, 12 and 16 weeks. (DA2PP) Then a 1 year booster. Another booster every 3 or 5 years of age. It has been proven that this amt of vaccine will protect them for life as it remains in their bodies at least 7 yrs.

Rabies is given at 16-24 weeks old then annually (as required by Georgia law). Check with your local animal shelter for once a month discounted vaccine clinics for $10-12 rabies vaccines.

We do not use Corona, Leptos, Lyme or Kennel Cough.

We use FrontlinePlus or Advantix to combat fleas and ticks only if needed and only on adult dogs. We use Dawn Dishwashing Liquid and Diatomaceous Earth Powder first to see if it will rid any flea infestation and for use on pups as needed.

We deworm at 3 weeks, 5 weeks, 7 weeks, 12 weeks. Our adults are wormed every 6 months.

We use heartworm preventative starting at 4 months.
