Vaccines

Da2PP4L

The DA2PP4L vaccine is a combination vaccine that protects your dog from many serious illnesses, the most common of which is distemper. Distemper is a viral disease that affects both the immune and neurological systems and it can be rapidly fatal. The DA2PP4L also protects from adenovirus-2, parvovirus,  parainfluenza, and leptosporosis — all of which range from serious to potentially fatal to your canine.  

Bordetella

The Bordetella vaccination is a yearly oral vaccination indicated in dogs that go to shows, are boarded, or go to obedience classes. It is used to prevent kennel cough and other upper respiratory diseases. It is transmitted by infected dogs like the common cold. Symptoms include a hacking cough and sneezing. 

Rabies

The Rabies vaccination is a core vaccination. It causes behavioral changes and affects the nervous system. It is transmissible to all mammals, including humans, and is fatal. 

Lyme

Vaccination for Lyme borreliosis should be considered for dogs that live within or may be traveling to areas where tick bites are of concern. Lyme is transmitted primarily by black-legged ticks or deer ticks. The most common symptoms of Lyme disease are lameness, swollen lymph nodes, joint swelling, fatigue, and loss of appetite.

Canine Influenza

Canine influenza (also known as dog flu) is a contagious respiratory disease in dogs caused by specific Type A influenza virus known to infect dogs (not humans). The signs of this illness in dogs are cough, runny nose, fever, lethargy, eye discharge, and reduced appetite; however, severity can range from mild symptoms to severe illness resulting in pneumonia and sometimes death. Dogs who travel or who go to grooming, boarding, doggie day care or a variety of other social situations.

FVRCP

Feline Rhinotracheitis Virus and Feline Calicivirus can cause destruction of the lining of the respiratory tract. Signs include sneezing, discharge from the nose and eyes, oral ulcers, and poor appetite. Feline panleukopenia is a highly contagious viral disease of cats caused by the feline parvovirus. Kittens are most severely affected by the virus. The feline parvovirus infects and kills cells that are rapidly growing and dividing. It is spread by an infected cat’s urine, stool, and nasal secretions. 

Rabies

The Rabies vaccination is a core vaccination. It causes behavioral changes and affects the nervous system. It is transmissible to all mammals, including humans, and is fatal. ​

Feline Leukemia

Feline Leukemia Virus (FeLV) is a retrovirus belonging to the coronavirus subfamily, which means it is a cancer-causing virus that affects cats only. (not humans) FeLV is spread primarily through cats’ saliva but may also be spread through blood, tears, feces, and urine. Most cats get the virus from their infected mothers at birth or through prolonged direct contact with FeLV-positive cats, such as mutual grooming. In some instances, FeLV can spread through the shared use of litter boxes or feeding dishes. Vaccination is highly recommended for any adult cat that goes outside at any time and for all kittens, regardless of lifestyle.
