Preventative Care Keeps Your Pets Healthy
Keeping your pets healthy starts right away, and one of the best ways to protect them from diseases is with vaccinations. At Town & Country Veterinary Clinic, we offer a wide range of vaccines for dogs and cats. It’s important that when you first bring your new kitten or puppy home, you bring them in for their initial set of pet vaccinations in Starke. The veterinarian will follow up with immunizations in the future if they are necessary to maintain your pet’s defenses against a particular health concern.
Vaccines work by delivering a small dose of deactivated bacteria or viruses into your pet’s body. That dose will cause your pet’s immune system to develop antibodies to fight off that specific problem. Then if your pet is exposed to the same health issue in the future, he or she will be ready to fight it off right away and won’t have signs of the disease or illness.
Some of the most common vaccines for pets include rabies, distemper intestinal parasites, and heartworms. Other vaccines for dogs include:
- Parainfluenza
- Canine parvovirus
- Adenovirus
- Coronavirus
- Leptospirosis
- Bordetella
Some of the other vaccines we may recommend for cats include feline virus rhinotracheitis, calicivirus, chlamydia, and leukemia.
