Vaccinations

Young animals are a lot like children; it’s a never-ending job keeping them safe and happy, and it’s our job to protect them from numerous potential health problems. Vaccinations are the best defenses against many viral and bacterial infections, and vaccinations can prevent deadly diseases like:

• Parvovirus
• Distemper
• Rabies
• Leptospirosis
• Panleukopenia
• Feline leukemia
• Chlamydia

It is important to provide most vaccinations when your pets are young when their immune systems are still developing and need extra protection in order to stay healthy. We also carry a rattlesnake vaccine for clients whose pets may spend time outdoors and be at a higher risk. Vaccinations are vital tools for maintaining your pets’ overall health and wellness, and your Laurel Pet Hospital veterinarian can help you determine the best time to provide certain vaccines to your pets. Vaccines are particularly important for active pets that regularly leave the house with you. Active pets are more likely to encounter other animals that haven’t been vaccinated and thus might be carrying some of these dangerous diseases.

A Laurel Pet Hospital veterinarian will help you with every step of the vaccination process, including:

• Pet examination and introductory vaccinations
• Necessary booster shots
• Vaccine education
