Why Do Dogs and Cats Need Regular Vaccinations?
Pet vaccines are highly effective at safeguarding dogs and cats from disease. However, they don’t last forever, so regular booster shots are necessary to “boost” your pet’s immune system. Similar to human vaccines, cat and dog vaccines train the immune system to recognize and fight back against intruders. In the case of our pets, these intruders include rabies, distemper, parvovirus, and feline distemper.
Our Vaccine Recommendations for Dogs and Cats
Dogs and cats each have vaccines formulated for their needs. These vaccines are split into two categories: Core vaccines, or highly recommended for all pets, and non-core, or lifestyle-based, vaccines.
Dog Vaccines
At Dundee Veterinary Clinic, we base our vaccine recommendations on the American Animal Hospital Association’s guidelines. You can see our core and non-core dog vaccines listed below.
Cat Vaccines
Our veterinarians follow the research-based cat vaccine recommendations of the American Association of Feline Practitioners, with an emphasis on individual assessment. Each vaccine is recommended based on each cat’s lifestyle, environment, health status, and exposure level.
