Evaluation of the efficacy and duration of immunity of a canine combination vaccine against virulent parvovirus, infectious canine hepatitis virus, and distemper virus experimental challenges

Omar Y Abdelmagid et al. Vet Ther. 2004 Fall.

Abstract

The results of this study confirmed that dogs vaccinated subcutaneously with a commercially available multivalent vaccine containing modified-live canine distemper virus, canine adenovirus type 2, canine parvovirus type 2b, and canine parainfluenza virus antigens were protected against sequential experimental challenge 55 to 57 months after initial vaccination given at 7 to 8 weeks of age. All 10 vaccinates were protected against clinical diseases and mortality following parvovirus and infectious canine hepatitis experimental infections. All vaccinates were protected against mortality and 90% against clinical disease following distemper challenge. These data support at least a 4-year duration of immunity for these three "core" fractions in the combination vaccine.

How often do dogs need distemper shots?

DAPP – (Canine Distemper) – Every 3 years. Rabies – Every 3 years.

How long are distemper and parvo shots good for?

How Long Does Distemper/Parvovirus Vaccine Last? After the initial puppy series and adult booster one year later, the distemper/parvo vaccine lasts at least 3 years according to current research.

How long can a dog go without a distemper shot?

According to WSAVA (The World Small Animal Veterinary Association) there is currently a three-month leeway period. In which any adult animal, with their full course of immunisations as a puppy or kitten, will be considered 'protected' for three months after their annual booster is due.

Do dogs need distemper vaccine every year?

The short answer: yes. Regular vaccines greatly increase your dog's protection against serious diseases—some deadly, like distemper. Remember, if your dog contracts an illness that a vaccine could have prevented, the cost of treatment is usually much higher than the cost of prevention.
