Frequently Asked Questions About Pet Vaccinations
Core vaccinations are required for all cats and dogs, but non-core vaccines are optional depending on a pet’s risk factors. For dogs, non-core vaccines include Bordetella, Lyme, canine influenza, and canine leptospirosis.
Vaccines stimulate the pet’s immune system by producing a weakened antigen that triggers the pet’s body to produce antibodies that are designed to fight against the disease.
New puppies should come in for their first wellness exam at around six weeks of age, while kittens should come in at around eight weeks. During these visits, the veterinarian may opt to induce the first round of vaccines such as DHPP in dogs, and FVRCP in cats.
