Just as you prioritize vaccinations for yourself and your family, it's equally essential to ensure your pets are protected. Our four-legged companions are susceptible to various viral and bacterial diseases, and vaccinations play a crucial role in building their immunity against harmful pathogens. We offer a comprehensive range of vaccines for dogs and cats, tailored to keep your pets happy and healthy.
Let’s set up an appointment, and together, we’ll discuss the best vaccination plan for your pet!
How Do Vaccines Work?
Vaccines contain antigens that trigger an immune response, preparing your pet’s body to recognize and fight off these pathogens in the future. With a properly vaccinated pet, their immune system is primed and ready to protect them from potentially serious illnesses.
Vaccines We Offer
Starting your cat or dog on vaccinations early is vital—ideally between 6 and 8 weeks of age. Here’s a breakdown of the vaccines we provide:
For Dogs
- Rabies
- Distemper
- Adenovirus
- Parvovirus
- Leptospirosis
- Bordetella
For Cats
- Rabies
- Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis
- Calcivirus
- Feline Panleukopenia
- Feline Leukemia
While some vaccines are considered core, or essential, vaccinations for all cats or dogs, others are non-core options that are administered based on a variety of factors. Our veterinarian can help determine the best vaccination protocol for your pet’s unique needs.
Choosing the Right Vaccines for Your Pets
Choosing the Right Vaccines for Your Pets
When deciding which vaccines are necessary for your pet, several factors come into play. During your pet’s wellness visit, we’ll conduct a thorough nose-to-tail examination and discuss your pet’s lifestyle. Key considerations include:
-
Interaction with Other Animals
Are they social butterflies or homebodies?
-
Living Environment
Is your pet mostly indoors or outdoors?
-
Travel Habits
Do you frequently take your pet on adventures?
-
Age, Breed, Size, and Health Status
Your pet’s personal history plays an important role in determining their vaccination needs.
Based on this information, we’ll develop a customized vaccination plan that adapts over time to meet your pet’s changing needs. Regular annual visits are important to help your pet stay healthy and up to date.
