CaniShot DHPP Lepto vaccination protocol 100 day old puppy dosage administration
Here is a complete guide for administering CaniShot DHPP and CaniShot Lepto to your 100-day-old (approximately 14-week) GSD puppy:
At 100 Days (~14 Weeks) - What to Do
At this age, your puppy is in the middle of its primary vaccination series. Here's exactly how to proceed:
Reconstitution & Administration
CaniShot DHPP is a freeze-dried (lyophilized) vaccine that must be reconstituted:
- Use the CaniShot Lepto liquid vial as the diluent to reconstitute the DHPP powder - this is the standard method with this combo (the Lepto acts as the solvent).
- Draw up the Lepto liquid into a syringe, inject it into the DHPP freeze-dried vial, and mix gently until dissolved.
- Draw the entire reconstituted solution back into the syringe.
- Dose: 1 mL (1 full vial = 1 dose), given subcutaneously (under the skin), typically at the scruff of the neck or between the shoulder blades.
- Use a 24-26 gauge, 5/8" needle.
Important: These vaccines are labeled "For Veterinary Use Only." Ideally, administration should be done by or under guidance of a licensed veterinarian.
Vaccination Schedule for a 100-Day-Old Puppy
| Age | Vaccines |
|---|---|
| 6-8 weeks | DHPP (1st dose) |
| 10-12 weeks | DHPP (2nd dose) + Lepto (1st dose) |
| ~14 weeks (now) | DHPP (3rd dose) + Lepto (2nd dose) |
| 16+ weeks | Rabies (mandatory) |
| 1 year later | DHPP booster + Lepto annual booster |
At 100 days (~14 weeks), this is typically the 3rd DHPP dose and 2nd Lepto dose.
Key Points
- Never inject DHPP intravenously - subcutaneous only.
- Give at room temperature - take the vials out of the fridge 15-20 minutes before use.
- Do not vaccinate a sick or feverish puppy - ensure the puppy is healthy on the day.
- Monitor for adverse reactions for 30-60 minutes after injection: facial swelling, vomiting, difficulty breathing, or collapse are signs of anaphylaxis - contact a vet immediately if these occur.
- Mild lethargy or soreness at the injection site for 1-2 days is normal.
- Keep the puppy away from unvaccinated dogs and high-risk areas until 2 weeks after the final dose.
- Rabies vaccine (mandatory by law in India) should be given at or after 16 weeks - this is separate from these two vials.
Reminder
The Lepto booster (2nd dose) must be given 2-4 weeks after the 1st Lepto dose. If your puppy already received Lepto previously, this is the booster. If this is the very first Lepto dose, schedule another booster in 3-4 weeks.

After injecting dhppil how much time time take to give this rabies vaccine to puppy
That is the CANac Rabies Veterinary Vaccine, Inactivated I.P. by Intas - the standard killed rabies vaccine used in India.
How Long to Wait After DHPP Before Giving Rabies?
✅ You can give Rabies the same day as DHPP, or any time after
Here's the standard guidance:
| Scenario | What to do |
|---|---|
| Same visit (today) | You CAN give DHPP + Rabies together in the same session - just use a different injection site (e.g., scruff for DHPP, hindlimb for Rabies) |
| Separate visit | Minimum 2 weeks apart is commonly practiced, though no strict waiting period is required between killed (inactivated) and modified live vaccines |
For Your 100-Day-Old GSD Puppy
Since your puppy is ~14 weeks old:
- Rabies vaccine minimum age: 12-16 weeks (your puppy qualifies now)
- Dose: 1 mL, given subcutaneously or intramuscularly (check the vial label - most inactivated rabies vaccines are IM in India)
- Site: Back of thigh / hindlimb muscle (separate site from DHPP)
- Booster: One booster 1 year later, then every 3 years (or per local law)
Recommended Approach
If you have already given DHPP + Lepto today, you can:
- Give Rabies the same day at a separate site (most vets do this), OR
- Wait 2-3 weeks if you prefer to space them out and monitor reactions separately
In India, many veterinarians give DHPP + Lepto + Rabies all at the same visit at 12-16 weeks. This is safe and accepted practice.
Important Reminders
- Keep the puppy calm and hydrated after vaccination
- Watch for swelling, vomiting, or breathing difficulty for 30-60 minutes post-injection
- Record the date - the 1-year rabies booster is legally required in India
Dose of rabies vaccine for puppy
Rabies Vaccine Dose for Puppies (CANac Inactivated I.P.)
💉 Dose: 1 mL — regardless of breed or body weight
This applies to all dogs and puppies - there is no weight-based dosing for rabies vaccine. A 5 kg puppy gets the same 1 mL dose as a 40 kg adult dog.
Administration Details
| Parameter | Details |
|---|---|
| Dose | 1 mL (full vial = 1 dose) |
| Route | Subcutaneous (SC) or Intramuscular (IM) |
| Site | Back of thigh (hindlimb) or scruff of neck |
| Needle | 23-25 gauge, 1" needle |
| Minimum age | 12 weeks (your 100-day puppy is ready) |
No Reconstitution Needed
Unlike the DHPP freeze-dried vaccine, the inactivated rabies vaccine comes ready to use as a liquid - just draw 1 mL directly from the vial and inject. Do not mix with anything.
Booster Schedule
| Dose | When |
|---|---|
| 1st dose (Primary) | Now (at ~14 weeks) |
| 2nd dose (Booster) | 1 year after the first dose |
| Subsequent boosters | Every 1-3 years (every year per Indian law) |
Quick Tips
- Give at a different site from the DHPP/Lepto injection
- The vial should be at room temperature before injecting - take it out of the fridge 15-20 minutes before use
- Do not freeze the rabies vaccine - freezing destroys inactivated vaccines
- Record the vaccination date for legal and travel records
