Pet Vaccinations in Forest Hills, NY
During our wellness examinations we often recommend a consistent immunization schedule. Vaccinations help prevent your pet from contracting many highly contagious diseases that were once considered fatal. We use the American Veterinary Medical Association’s Vaccination Guidelines to recommend a personalized immunization schedule, based on several factors including, age and circumstance.
Small amounts of altered viruses, bacteria, or other disease-causing organisms are present in vaccines. When given, they encourage the immune system of your pet to develop antibodies and disease-fighting cells that can defend against such illnesses. One of the pillars of effective canine and feline preventative healthcare is vaccination. Vaccines offer cost-effective defense against infectious and communicable diseases for both people and dogs when given by your veterinarian. We will suggest vaccination schedules based on your pet’s age, breed, and species during the wellness examination.
