The first shots are for parvovirus (at five weeks old), and then rabies, and eventually lyme. Many vets will also vaccinate against bordatella and parainfluenza.

The first shot will be a C4 which covers Distemper, Hepatitis, Parvovirus & Kennel Cough at 6-8 weeks. Then 4 weeks later you can get the same or increase it to a C5 which includes Bordetella then again 4 weeks later the same as the second shot.
