We want you to be involved in your pet’s vaccination choices! Surprisingly, some local clinics still vaccinate for everything every year. We follow vaccine protocols set forth by the Sri Lnakan Veterinary Research Institute. If your pet’s lifestyle doesn’t warrant a vaccine, we won’t give it. We also try to spread out vaccinations to minimize adverse events from vaccinations. Whenever possible we use non-adjuvanted vaccines. We take the time to discuss vaccines with you to best determine what vaccines are warranted for your pet’s lifestyle. We are asking about your lifestyle to help determine what is best for your pet—We aren’t just being nosy!

In general, we recommend all of our canine patients receive core immunizations against distemper, hepatitis, and parvovirus and parainfluenza (DHPP), and rabies. After the first series of immunizations are administered, we then recommend vaccinations every year, beginning a year after completing the puppy series. We try to maintain Fear Free protocols as much as possible.

At Sathnaro Animal Hospital, we know how much you love your pets, because we love them too. You want to do everything you can to keep your pet healthy and happy for as long as possible. Our veterinarians have a wealth of knowledge about the risks of exposure to infectious diseases your pet will face during their lifetime. We have developed a schedule of vaccinations to minimize your pet’s risk from both infectious diseases and complications that can occur.

Many people don’t understand that vaccines are not all the same. Some companies use “adjuvents” such as aluminum in their vaccines. We use only the safest NON-adjuvanted vaccinations for your pets. These vaccines cost us more, but they are the vaccines we would choose to give our own pets. Furthermore, We take the time to discuss vaccines with you to best determine what vaccines are warranted for your pet’s lifestyle. We ask that YOU are involved in the vaccination choices.

Vaccinations make up a small part of what we do here at Sathnaro Animal Hospital, and we have chosen the safest vaccinations on the market for your pets. If you go to a “mobile vaccine clinic” there is a good chance that the vaccine chosen was based on economics rather than safety. Our markup is minimal on vaccinations as we don’t wish for clients to go to a mobile vaccine clinic where the pet might get a lesser vaccine.

Just as diseases that threaten humans, such as polio, have been virtually eliminated by vaccinations, there are also safe, effective vaccines that your pets need to protect them from specific diseases. After examining your pet and gathering information to assess their risk, we can implement a vaccination schedule for your beloved companion. With this up to date pet vaccination schedule, you will know you have done your part to help keep your furry friend free from costly or even life-threatening illnesses.

For indoor cats, we recommend immunizations against distemper, rhinotracheitis, feline calicivirus, and rabies. Cats who go outdoors should also get feline leukemia vaccinations. Once the kitten series is complete, we begin the every year vaccination protocol. We encourage you to discuss immunization options for your pet with our veterinarians and medical staff.
