FAQs
Why are immunizations important for my pet?
Vaccines help protect pets from contagious and potentially life-threatening diseases. They stimulate your pet’s immune system to fight infections like rabies, distemper, and parvovirus before they become serious health issues.
When should my pet receive their first vaccines?
Puppies and kittens typically start their vaccination series between 6 to 8 weeks of age. After that, boosters are given as recommended by your veterinarian to maintain strong immunity.
Are there any risks or side effects to vaccines?
Most pets tolerate vaccines well. Mild side effects like soreness or slight lethargy can occur but usually resolve quickly. Our team will monitor your pet closely and address any concerns you may have.
How often do adult pets need booster shots?
Booster schedules vary depending on the vaccine and your pet’s risk factors. Generally, many vaccines are given annually or every three years. We tailor the schedule based on your pet’s lifestyle and health status.
Can I bring my pet in for vaccinations without an appointment?
We recommend scheduling an appointment to ensure your pet receives personalized care and minimal wait times. You can easily request an appointment online or call us at (517) 349-2277.
