Cat and Dog Vaccinations in Windham, NH

When it comes to dogs and cats, there are many things to consider to keep them free of diseases. Annual wellness exams, parasite control, teeth cleanings…the list goes on and on. Vaccinating should also be on the list, as this is one of the most effective ways to keep a pet healthy and protected. Cat and dog vaccinations help fortify the immune system for pets in Windham by using antigens which act the same way as a virus or disease in the body, but without the full symptoms. This exposure leads to the production of antibodies. As a result, if a pet is ever exposed to the real illness for which they were vaccinated, their body will be equipped to combat it.

Core Vs. Non-Core Pet Vaccines

The lifestyle of one pet compared to another can be very similar or drastically different. You might have a dog that spends most of their time indoors or a cat that loves to sunbathe on the lawn. This is why there are two categories of vaccines for dogs and cats: core and non-core. Core vaccines are those that are universally recommended by veterinarians because they protect against potentially serious or even fatal illnesses—some of which can be transmitted to humans. Non-core vaccines are recommended only if a pet has a high risk of exposure to a certain illness.

We offer the following core and non-core pet vaccines for our canine and feline patients:

Canine Vaccines

  • Distemper (core)
  • Hepatitis (core)
  • Parvovirus (core)
  • Parainfluenza (core)
  • Rabies (core)
  • Bordetella (non-core)
  • Leptospirosis (non-core)

Feline Vaccines

  • Panleukopenia (core)
  • Calici virus (core)
  • Rhinotracheitis (core)
  • Rabies (core)
  • Feline leukemia/FeLV (non-core)
  • Feline immunodeficiency virus/FIV (non-core)
  • Chlamydia (non-core)

We can determine which vaccines are necessary for YOUR pet, and how often they need to be updated, during the wellness visits. Since vaccine antibodies eventually wear off, vaccines need to be updated every 1-3 years.
