Canine Vaccinations
One of the most important components of your dog’s health care is vaccinations. Vaccinations keep your dog and your family safe from preventable diseases. Our veterinarians will design a customized vaccine schedule for your dog based on his or her lifestyle and needs. Our vaccine recommendations are always based on up-to-date research and the incidence of disease in our area to maximize protection against the diseases your pet is likely to be exposed to.
Vaccines are divided into two classes, “core” vaccines and “non-core” vaccines. Core vaccines are recommended for all dogs, and non-core vaccines are recommended for dogs depending on their lifestyle.
Core vaccines include:
- canine distemper
- parvovirus
- rabies
- hepatitis
Non-core vaccines include:
- Influenza vaccine
- Canine adenovirus-2
- Bordetella
- Leptospirosis
- Coronavirus
- Lyme
The vaccination requirements and schedule varies for puppies, adult dogs, and senior dogs. Please call us today to schedule a wellness exam and vaccinations for your dog.
