Talking When to give Rabies Vaccine to my puppy?

Hi, I've been reading up on when to give the Rabies vaccine to my puppy. Some people say at least 2-3 weeks after their last set of puppy shots and some people say wait until 5-6 months old. I don't know which I should do?

Our State law is 3 months old but I WILL NOT subject a pup that young to such a powerful neurological affecting vaccine

I wait as long as possible and try to wait until 6 months old if I can

My vet made me wait until all of her booster shots were done.

Gary got his rabies at 4 months old along with his last set of boosters. Poor boy was drowsy and sore that day.

Yeah...Nisha throws up after rabies vaccines . If you can wait till 6 months, I would. BUT a lot of training classes require rabies shots before you enroll.
