A Rajapalayam Puppy typically lives 10–12 years. Most of what determines whether it gets there is routine care rather than anything dramatic.
Keep the records
Booster schedules run from the original dates, and a new vet asks for the history first.
Planning for about 11 years
A Rajapalayam Puppy is with you for about 11 years. Budget and routine both need to survive that, including the last quarter of it when a large dog needs more veterinary attention than it did young.
Vaccination and deworming
The core course starts around six weeks, rabies follows, then annual boosters. Deworming runs fortnightly to twelve weeks, monthly to six months, then quarterly.
The annual check
Once a year for an adult dog, and book it before the hot months rather than during them.
A breed from India, living in India
The Rajapalayam Puppy was developed in India. The part that travels badly is rarely temperament - it is the coat and the tolerance for heat. Plan the year around that and most of the rest follows.
What to watch for in a large dog
For this size class: hips, elbows and bloat. None is a reason not to own the breed; all are cheaper to manage early.
