Why Vaccinate Your Pet?
Pet Vaccinations play a crucial role in safeguarding your pet’s health. Here are a few reasons why keeping your pet’s vaccinations up to date is so important:
Disease Prevention
Pet Vaccines protect against a variety of contagious diseases that can affect both your pet and the wider pet community. By vaccinating your pet, you’re helping to prevent the spread of diseases like rabies, distemper, parvovirus, and feline leukemia.
Protection for All Life Stages
From puppies and kittens to senior pets, pet vaccinations are essential for pets at every stage of life. Younger pets need initial pet vaccinations to build their immunity, while adults and seniors require boosters to maintain their protection.
Legal Requirements
Some pet vaccinations, like rabies, are legally required for pets in many areas. Staying compliant with local laws ensures your pet can safely participate in activities like boarding, grooming, and traveling.
Community Health
Vaccinating your pet not only protects them but also helps prevent the spread of diseases to other pets and, in some cases, humans. This contributes to a healthier community overall.
Core and Non-Core Vaccinations
These are essential pet vaccines that every pet should receive. For dogs, core vaccines include rabies, distemper, parvovirus, and adenovirus. For cats, core vaccines include rabies, feline distemper (panleukopenia), calicivirus, and herpesvirus.
These pet vaccines are recommended based on your pet’s lifestyle, environment, and risk factors. Non-core vaccines for dogs may include Bordetella (kennel cough), Lyme disease, and leptospirosis. For cats, non-core vaccines can include feline leukemia virus (FeLV) and feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV).
