Vaccinations
- Vaccination for Puppies
Puppies are ‘temporarily’ protected against many diseases by antibodies received through their mother’s milk. These maternal antibodies decline in the first couple of months of their lives but until they drop sufficiently they can also neutralise vaccines. This is why a series of vaccinations is necessary for a puppy.
- Vaccination for Adult Dogs
The immunity from puppy vaccination weakens over time and your pet can again become susceptible to disease. Annual health checks and booster vaccinations will provide the best protection for the life of your pet.
At Your Pet’s Vet, we can organise the most suitable vaccination program for your dog, regardless of age or breed. Our qualified team will vaccinate and protect your dog against:
- Canine Parvovirus
- Canine Distemper
- Canine Hepatitis
- Canine Cough
- Caring for Your Dog After Vaccination
Following vaccination, your dog may be off-colour for a day or two, or have some slight swelling or tenderness at the injection site.
Access to food and water and a comfortable area to rest are usually all that is required for a quick recovery. However, if the response seems more severe, you should contact us immediately for further advice.

- Vaccination for Kittens
Kittens are ‘temporarily’ protected against many diseases by antibodies received through their mother’s milk. These maternal antibodies decline in the first couple of months of their lives but until they drop sufficiently they can also neutralise vaccines. This is why a series of vaccinations is necessary for a kitten. Initial vaccination programs should provide at least 2 vaccinations, 3-4 weeks apart. These protect against Feline Panleukopenia, Calicivirus, Rhinotracheitis, Chlamydia and Leukaemia virus at or after 8 weeks of age. Three vaccinations, 2-4 weeks apart that protect against Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV) are recommended at or after 8 weeks of age.
- Vaccination for Adult Cats
The immunity from kitten vaccination weakens over time and your pet can again become susceptible to disease. Annual health checks and booster vaccinations will provide the best protection for the life of your pet. At Your Pet’s Vet, we can organise the most suitable vaccination program for your cat, regardless of age or breed. Our qualified team will vaccinate and protect your cat against:
