In this part of your bowels, stool is not fully formed. Your cecum absorbs remaining nutrients and fluid from the stool, starting its transformation to the waste you see in your toilet. Anatomically, the cecum sits in the right lower area of your abdomen, where your appendix is positioned.
1 Puppies should receive a minimum of three vaccinations between 6 and 16 weeks old, no more frequently than every three to four weeks with the final dose at 14 to 16 weeks.
A series of vaccinations is recommended starting at 8 weeks and given 3 - 4 weeks apart up to 16 weeks of age. Dogs will not get Parvo from the vaccine, but when the vaccine is administered at a vet clinic to 6 wk old puppies only 30% will respond to the vaccine with any protection while all will likely be exposed.
