You can vaccinate puppies for rabies as early as 3 months of age. Vaccines should not be given to puppies under 3 months of age. Vaccination against rabies can be administered to dogs over the age of a month who are not yet vaccinated against it. It is recommended that the rabies vaccine is reapplied one year later to ensure that the child develops a strong immunity to the rabies virus. After this second Rabies vaccine is administered dogs should receive Rabies vaccines every three years.
