August is National Pet Immunization Month
Annual wellness exams are a great time to review your pet’s vaccination status. Keeping records current and scheduling regular checkups can help catch health issues early and ensure your pet stays protected.
**Why Vaccinate.....?
Vaccines provide essential protection against many common pet illnesses. Puppies and kittens should receive their first vaccines between 6 to 8 weeks of age, followed by booster shots every 4 weeks until they are 20 weeks old. It’s important to complete the entire series of vaccinations! Missing boosters can leave your pet vulnerable to infection.

Core Vaccines for Dogs:

Rabies

DA2PP (protects against Canine Distemper, Adenovirus, Parvovirus, and Parainfluenza)

Leptospirosis

Bordetella (kennel cough)

Lyme disease

Core Vaccines for Cats:
Rabies

FVRCP (Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis, Calicivirus, Panleukopenia)

Feline Leukemia

Feline Bordetella

Keeping your furry family members on a regular vaccination schedule is key to giving them a long, happy, and healthy life.
