Vaccination



Vaccinating your Pug




Vaccinating your Pug against infectious and potentially fatal canine diseases is an important part of being a responsible Pug owner. A puppy should receive its first vaccination when he is eight weeks old and will then require subsequent vaccinations to build-up its initial immunity.
Below you’ll find some information about which vaccinations your Pug should have and what diseases you are protecting your new friend from.
 



  
hen Your Pug is Eight Weeks Old…

Most veterinarians recommend a series of three vaccinations, given every four weeks starting when your Pug is eight weeks old. The first vaccine is usually a so called combination shot, which protects your puppy against five different diseases:
1. Adenovirus Adenovirus is sometimes called “Dog Hepatitis” because it targets the liver, but
it also affects the kidneys, pancreas, and vasculature. Adenovirus causes abdominal pain, diarrhea, fever and tiredness and even though some dogs can be treated with antibiotics and/or blood transfusions, it is often fatal for young puppies.
 


2. Distemper
Distemper is a serious disease that involves gastrointestinal, nervous
system and respiratory complications. Distemper is similar to our Measles virus and can affect all dogs no matter age, even though it is most often seen in puppies. Distemper is highly contagious and can cause everything from cough and diarrhea to seizures, neurological problems and in some cases even death.


3. Parainfluenza
Parainfluenza is a flu-like disease that can be treated. The symptoms include, but are not limited to, cough and discharge from nose and eyes.


4. Leptospirosis
Leptospirosis bacteria can be found in infected mammals´ urine or urine-contaminated bodies of water. It can penetrate skin or mucous membranes and invade your Pug’s bloodstream and infect his urinary tract, liver and kidneys. Its effects range from diarrhea and vomiting to chronic renal failure. The vaccine is often given at the same time as Distemper and Adenovirus, but some Pugs are allergic to the lepto vaccine, so lepto is available separately too. Unfortunately, the lepto vaccine doesn't protect against all strains of leptospirosis, and it only lasts about eight months. If you have a dog that is exposed to swampy areas, ponds, or heavily irrigated lawns, your vet may recommend boosters twice a year.

5. Corona virus
The Corona virus causes inflammation of the intestines and diarrhea. Older dogs usually recover from the corona virus infection, but for younger puppies it might be fatal. The symptoms include decreased appetite, diarrhea, fever and tiredness. The distemper combination vaccine is given annually after the first three series.




When Your Pug is 12 Weeks Old…

Kennel Cough
When your puppy has reached the age of 12 weeks, he should also be vaccinated for Kennel Cough (Bordetella Bronchispetica). Kennel Cough is a highly contagious disease that usually spreads fast in areas where many dogs are concentrated, such as dog parks and kennels. The symptoms include a dry, irritating cough. Kennel Cough can quite easily be treated with antibiotics. Remember that your Pug may need a booster after four weeks and then Kennel Cough vaccine once a year after that.


When Your Pug is 16 Weeks Old…

Rabies
When your Pug is about 16 weeks old he can be vaccinated for Rabies. Most of us probably associate Rabies with a mad dog foaming at the mouth, eager to bite anyone in his way. But what many people don’t know is that Rabies is almost 100% fatal and that vaccinating your dog for Rabies actually is required by law in many states. Rabies is transmitted to dogs via saliva (often from a bite from an infected animal such as a raccoon or a rat) and the symptoms include, but are not limited to, fever, vomiting and diarrhea. Since the prognosis for Rabies is fatal, the best way to protect your Pug is to make sure that he is vaccinated properly.



Other Vaccinations Your Pug Might Need:

 Parvovirus
Parvovirus causes bloody diarrhea and vomiting and is often fatal in puppies. Anywhere dogs come together there is always a risk for parvo exposure and the only way to really protect your Pug is to vaccinate him. Vets often recommend that parvo vaccinations be given every 4 weeks from 3 to 20 weeks of age, depending on your Pug's level of risk.
Annual revaccinations are recommended.


Lyme
If you live in an area where Lyme disease is endemic, you should consider this vaccine. Lyme is the most common tick-transmitted disease in the world, but with proper tick repellent the vaccine isn't always necessary. Your local veterinarian will know if your Pug will need the vaccine or not.




Remember!
Avoid walking your puppy in public places and contact with unfamiliar dogs until your vet advises it is safe to do so. However, your puppy doesn’t have to be separated from your other dogs, as long as they are healthy and fully vaccinated.

TRANING

 

Even pugs need training, believe it or not ;-).
   
4 Valuable Methods of Pug House Training
Successful training depends a lot on how much a dog desires his (or her) master's approval, pugs strife to please their owners and will do everything to to gain approval, which makes pug owners very fortunate.
If you’re a proud owner of a pug you’ll most likely have to address the inevitable housebreaking issue sooner or later, and the sooner the better. Because of a pugs generally more stubborn demeanor, pug house training has often been regarded as a trying and interminable process, but it doesn’t mean it has to be this way for you and your furry friend.
If your pug is still a puppy under 12 weeks of age and not yet able to hold her urge, she can still get adapted to the process early on. Take her outside to her designated spot for 15-20 minute segments, every 2 hours. Each time she relieves herself outside praise and reward her.

There are several popular techniques for pug house training outlined below that all have been proven effective. As always, if you would like success with any training process, consistency is key. For that reason, what it largely comes down to is which methods suit your schedule and lifestyle.

If you are rearley Home

Paper Training
This method involves using paper such as old newspapers or purchasing scented pretreated pads and placing them in the area you’d like your pug to do her business.

Initially, you will gently take her and place her on the papers or pad when she begins to circle and sniff the floor or display other signals of having to go. When she starts to use the papers or pad successfully on her own, gradually place them nearer and nearer to the door until they are no longer required. You may also place one outside during the transitioning, in the area you decide upon. Remember to give her lots of praise each time she relieves herself on the paper or pads.

If you are sometimes home

Crate Training
If you choose to incorporate this as your pug house training method, be sure to provide your pug with a crate just big enough for her to comfortably stand and turn around in. The concept behind crate training is to teach your pug that she is able to control her urge to go. She’ll realize that when she needs to relieve herself she doesn’t have to right in that instant and eventually she won’t. This is because like us, your pug wants a clean and cozy space to dwell in and won’t want to lay in the mess.

If you are usually home


Bell Training

Pugs are often regarded as an intelligent breed of dogs and one method of pug house training, is to utilize bells. Suspend bells from the door that leads out to your backyard or wherever your pug’s area to go may be. Gently guide her paw in repeatedly touching the bells hanging from the door. Take her to her spot immediately, thereafter. She will eventually associate that when she taps on the bells, she will be taken outside to relieve herself. To successfully incorporate this method, you must keep an ear out and be receptive to her ringing. Otherwise, she will try to alert you with barking or simply go wherever she pleases.



Schedule Based Training (SBT)



The SBT technique teaches your pug to relieve herself on a routine basis. By applying the understanding that it generally requires 4-6 hours for your pug to digest meals, (5 being a good medium) you schedule potty times accordingly. On one hand this pug house training method is unique in that it does not require any supplies to implement but do keep in mind that pugs dislike change and variance especially when it involves their feeding times. If success in the shortest time possible is what you are aiming for, make sure someone can assist with the routine if you need to be elsewhere, sticking to the schedule is crucial
