At what age is a dog not required to have the DHLPPCV vaccine anymore? I heard after they turn 7 yrs. old. Is this true?

Your talking about the distemper vaccination right? Basically speaking, this disease can affect dogs of all ages. Its really contagious, so I would say to always keep up to date with your vaccinations. You can never be to safe. Maybe your people would disagree?

No, actually the vaccination defence last for a year and the produced antibodies memory and their concentration goes below the actual defence so yearly vaccination needed for life time.
With so many dog breeds to choose from, sometime it's easier to seach based on certain characterisitcs.
