Puppy Vaccination Questions From A Noob

[vegemite_toast]

As stated in previous threads, I've never had the pleasure to own (adopt) a puppy. All my previous dogs (including the current one) have been older rescue dogs.

My pup's breeder has had the pups vaccinated this week (they are currently 6 weeks old). We will get Maple when she is 8 weeks old. At what age should she have her 2nd vaccination? Will she need a 3rd set of vaccinations before she can go out in public, and if so, when should they be done? Am I wrong in thinking that she would be ok to go out for walks etc 10 days after her last vaccination.

I'm trying to work out some social plans so I was hoping to sort of figure out some dates that would be safe to take Maple out and about.

I tried to google the info, but I couldn't find what I was looking for, probably because I wasn't typing in the right search parameters or something

TIA!

I got my boys 2nd done at 10 weeks and then 10 days later he was out at a show, not showing but walking around. He was a couple of days under 12 weeks.

Each person is different though. Some people wont let their dogs feet touch the ground until they have had all 3, and others take their little babies to shows at 6 weeks.
