Vaccines and Wellness Exams

Vaccines

Vaccinations are a critical part of your pet’s preventative wellness plan. Vaccines are designed to trigger immune responses and prepare the immune system to fight future infections from disease. Vaccines provide immunity against a variety of diseases with the intent of lessening the severity of or preventing certain diseases altogether.

Experts agree that widespread use of vaccinations within the last century has prevented death and disease in millions of animals. Vaccinations protect your pet from highly contagious and deadly diseases and improve your pet’s overall quality of life.

Core vaccines are recommended for all puppies and kittens as well as adult dogs and cats with an unknown vaccination history for protection against the most commonly transmitted diseases. Non-core vaccines are optional vaccines that should be considered depending on the pet’s exposure, environment, lifestyle, age and health.

The type of vaccines and frequency of vaccinations recommended for your particular pet may vary depending on the location, age, health, and lifestyle of your pet. These factors may change over time, so we recommend your pet’s vaccination plan be discussed each year at their routine annual examination.
