Understanding Pet Vaccinations

Creating a vaccination plan tailored to your pet

Vaccines for pets are typically divided into two main categories:

  1. Core vaccines – These are recommended for the majority of pets to protect against widely recognized diseases.

  2. Non-core (lifestyle) vaccines – These are suggested based on a pet’s individual risk factors and potential exposure.

When designing the most appropriate vaccination plan for your pet, our veterinarians consider several important factors, including:

  • Previous vaccination history
  • Local disease prevalence
  • Environmental exposure
  • Lifestyle and activities
  • Age and health status
  • Travel habits
