Pet Vaccinations: Protecting Your Pet from Preventable IllnessesKeeping your pet healthy starts with strong prevention—and vaccinations are one of the most important tools we have. Vaccines protect your dog or cat from a range of contagious, sometimes life-threatening diseases. Whether you’ve just brought home a new puppy or kitten or your adult pet is due for boosters, staying current on vaccines is essential to their lifelong health.Why Are Pet Vaccines Important?Vaccinations work by preparing your pet’s immune system to fight off specific diseases before they ever come into contact with them. Some of these illnesses—like rabies or parvovirus—can be fatal if left untreated. Others can cause chronic discomfort, extended treatment, or put other animals at risk.Vaccines don’t just protect your pet—they help protect the broader pet community by reducing the spread of disease.What Vaccines Does My Pet Need?Vaccine needs vary based on your pet’s species, age, lifestyle, and local disease risks. Here’s a general breakdown:For Dogs:<ul><li>Core Vaccines: Rabies, Distemper, Parvovirus, Adenovirus</li><li>Lifestyle-Dependent Vaccines: Bordetella (kennel cough), Leptospirosis, Lyme, Canine Influenza</li></ul>For Cats:<ul><li>Core Vaccines: Rabies, FVRCP (Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis, Calicivirus, Panleukopenia)</li><li>Lifestyle-Dependent Vaccines: Feline Leukemia (FeLV), especially for outdoor or multi-cat households</li></ul>Your veterinarian will help you build a tailored vaccine schedule based on your pet’s needs and environment.What to Expect During a Vaccination Appointment<ul><li>Wellness Exam: We start with a head-to-tail checkup to ensure your pet is healthy enough for vaccines.</li><li>Personalized Plan: Based on age, health, and lifestyle.</li><li>Quick and Gentle Shots: Most pets tolerate vaccines well. The process is quick and performed with care.</li><li>Post-Vaccine Monitoring: Mild soreness or sleepiness is normal. We’ll guide you on what to watch for and when to follow up.</li></ul>We keep detailed vaccine records to ensure your pet stays on track—and help with things like boarding, grooming, or travel documentation.When Should My Pet Be Vaccinated?Puppies and kittens typically begin vaccinations at 6–8 weeks of age, with boosters every 3–4 weeks until about 16 weeks. Adult pets need regular boosters based on the vaccine type—some are annual, others are every 3 years.Staying on schedule is the best way to keep your pet protected.<div data-type="horizontalRule"><hr></div>Vaccinations are a simple step with a big impact. They prevent illness, reduce long-term costs, and support a longer, healthier life for your pet.📅 Ready to update your pet’s vaccines? Book an appointment with our care team today.
