Check ups, etc.

Question
We just got a new chocolate lab puppy and I was wondering if there is a web site to get info on Vet check up - timetables that is for shots, etc?  Thank you!  I have been enjoying reading this site.

Something funny happened when I just sent my answer.  This may be a duplicate.

Vaccination schedules are very controversial.  Some vets say there is always bad reactions, and we are killing more dogs that we are saving with too many vaccinations.  The fanatic I use says ''Yes the standard schedule protects 75% of the dogs from parvo, but what about the other 25%?''.  He has me trotting in every 2 weeks for a while, and a last one at 9 months.  If the vet you use isn't too extreme, I would go along with their schedule.  Any vet should be more familiar with local conditions than any website.  

I can't give you a link to a schedule.  You might find one at www.akc.org.  Vendors such as www.vetvax.com, might have one.  My 7 week old Sheba came with DHLP and CPV, and a schedule calling for DHLPP and Bordetella at 2 1/2 and 3 1/2 months, and rabies at 3 1/2.  This was from a very experienced dog guide school.  Many vets delay rabies until 6 months, while some states require it sooner.  In most areas you puppy also needs heart worm medicine and a flea preventative.  Some of the over the counter flea stuff works well enough.  I have my 2 dogs on Revolution preventing fleas, heart worm and other worms.
