Vaccine Information
Canine/Feline Vaccines
Rabies (core vaccine — required by law)
What is it? Rabies is a deadly disease caused by a virus that attacks the nervous system. The virus is secreted in saliva and is usually transmitted to people and animals by a bite from an infected animal.
When to vaccinate? Can be administered in one dose, as early as three months of age. Annual revaccination is required. A three year rabies vaccine may be administered if the pet is up to date and written documentation is provided.
What else should I know? Rabies is 100% fatal to cats, dogs, and humans, with no treatment available. Prevention is key.
Canine Only Vaccines
Canine Distemper (core vaccine)
What is it? Canine distemper is a contagious and serious viral illness with no known cure. The vaccine is a 5 in 1 which helps prevent canine distemper, parvovirus (CPV), adenovirus type 1 (hepatitis) and type 2 (respiratory disease), and parainfluenza.
When to vaccinate? Can be administered as early as 6 weeks of age. The first time the vaccine is administered, two follow up doses are required 3-4 weeks apart. Annual single dose revaccination is recommended.
What else should I know? Young, unvaccinated puppies and non-immunized older dogs tend to be more susceptible. It is not recommended to bring your puppy around other dogs until at least one week after their final distemper dose is administered.
Bordetella (non-core vaccine)
What is it? Bordetella (“kennel cough”) is a highly contagious respiratory disease in dogs.
When to vaccinate? Can be administered in one intranasal dose, as early as 3 weeks of age. Annual revaccination is recommended.
What else should I know? This vaccine is highly recommended if your pet regularly visits dog care, grooming facilities or the dog park.
Influenza (non-core vaccine)
What is it? Canine influenza (“dog flu”) is a highly contagious respiratory disease in dogs.
When to vaccinate? Can be administered as early as 6 weeks of age. The first time administered, one follow up dose is required in 2-4 weeks. Annual single dose revaccination is recommended.
What else should I know? Unlike the seasonal flu in people, canine influenza can occur year round. There is no current evidence that it infects people.
Lyme (non-core vaccine)
What is it? Lyme disease is one of the most common tick-born diseases. Infection typically occurs after the disease-carrying tick has been attached to the dog for at least 2-3 days.
When to vaccinate? Can be administered as early as 9 weeks of age. If the dog is 6 months or older then a Lyme test should be performed. The first time the vaccine is administered, one follow up booster dose is required in 2-3 weeks. Annual single dose revaccination is recommended.
What else should I know? It is best to avoid areas where ticks are in high numbers and use a good tick preventive. If you do see a tick on your dog, remove it properly and safely.
Leptospirosis (non-core vaccine)
What is it? Leptospirosis is a bacterial infection that can cause severe health problems. Infection typically occurs after a dog has come in contact with urine from wild animals.
When to vaccinate? Can be administered as early as 8 weeks of age. The first time administered, one follow up dose is required in 2-4 weeks. Annual single dose revaccination is recommended.
What else should I know? Dogs who live near water, roam off leash, go camping/hiking or hunting are more exposed to Leptospirosis.
Feline Only Vaccines
Feline Distemper (core vaccine)
What is it? Protects cats against the highly contagious and life-threatening viral illnesses – calicivirus, rhinotracheitis, and panleukopenia (“feline distemper”).
When to vaccinate? Can be administered as early as 8 weeks of age. The first time the vaccine is administered, one follow up dose is required in 3-4 weeks. Annual single dose revaccination is recommended.
