Factors to Consider While Selecting Vaccines for Your Pet

Some of the few factors we take into consideration while selecting the vaccines and brands for your pets are:

What is the probability of your pet coming into contact with the virus?
How effective is the vaccine?
What are the possibilities of the vaccine causing a reaction?
Will the vaccine protect your pet from multiple strains of a virus?

Why We Recommend a Particular Vaccine for Your Pet?

We recommend a particular vaccine for your pet after we consider things such as:

Your pet's age
Lifestyle
Environment
Exposure to other pets and wildlife
Your pet's present health condition
If the virus is transmissible to humans
Immunologist recommendations

DHLLP - Spare your canine a great deal of suffering with our DHLPP vaccine. The DHLPP vaccine protects your dog from distemper, hepatitis, leptospirosis, parainfluenza, and the parvovirus. These are the most common viruses your dog will come in contact with even if they don't go anywhere other than your yard. These viruses can be extremely life-threatening or fatal.

Kennel cough / Bordetella - If your dog has a chronic cough with little or no fever, it may have a case of kennel cough, or Bordetella. Bordetella vaccinations are best for canines who are normally exposed to other dogs in settings like kennels, groomers, dog parks, and training classes. If left untreated it can turn into pneumonia.

Rabies - The law in Ohio mandate rabies vaccinations for dogs. This virus is incurable, fatal and can be passed on to humans.

Canine Influenza - This virus' symptoms are very similar to that of kennel cough. Your dog might have a chronic cough and is usually accompanied by fever and sometimes other symptoms. This condition requires prompt treatment. The canine Influenza vaccine is best for dogs exposed to other dogs in settings like groomers, kennels, dog parks, and training classes.

Lyme Disease - Dogs exposed to wild areas and to areas with tick infestation are usually given vaccinations for Lyme disease. Consider this vaccine if you regularly take your dog for hiking, camping, or to any property in a country-like setting.

Feline Leukemia - This disease is spread from one cat to the other through contact with body fluids, such as urine, blood, and saliva. This is an immune disorder with long-term health implications. We recommend this vaccine for cats that go outdoors or live with cats that go outdoors.
