Question
Is it safe to worm and vaccinate a 14 week old puppy on the same day ?

Answer
While this certainly has been done before without problems, it really is better to do the two things a few days apart so that the puppy isn't getting so much "junk" in its system simultaneously. Many even recommend dividing up the puppy shots and giving them individually to avoid compromising the immune system and lessening the chances for vaccine reactions.
