When does a puppy get which vaccine? A week-by-week vaccination schedule based on the WSAVA 2024 guidelines and Hungarian legislation, the rules on mandatory rabies vaccination and microchipping in Hungary, typical 2026 costs, and what to do during the vaccination series while your puppy is not yet fully protected.

Yellow foam, white foam, brown or bloody vomit? We explain what the colour of your dog's vomit means, what can make a dog vomit, what you can safely do at home and when you need to see the vet straight away – with a table and a list of warning signs.

With a new puppy, the priorities are screening for parvo and Giardia in the first few days, then a vet check, a vaccination plan and a deworming plan in the first week. A printable checklist with vaccination, microchip and deworming tasks by age.

Canine parvovirus (CPV) is a highly contagious virus that attacks the lining of the intestine. Its main signs are sudden watery or bloody diarrhoea, vomiting, loss of appetite and lethargy. Without treatment it can be fatal in puppies within 48–72 hours. It can be detected from a fresh stool sample with a home antigen rapid test in 5–10 minutes; a positive result needs immediate veterinary care.

Before a litter goes to new homes, the most important screening is parvo and Giardia for puppies, and panleukopenia, Giardia and the parents' FIV/FeLV status for kittens. Tests are best done before vaccination or well apart from it, and the documented results should be handed over to the buyer.
