A regular booster is necessary to
maintain protection against infectious diseases such as parvovirus,
distemper, canine (kennel) cough, feline enteritis and cat
flu.
Vaccination stimulates the body to produce
protective antibodies against these serious
diseases.
Remember to protect horses against tetanus,
ferrets against distemper and rabbits against calicivirus.
Unfortunately there is no vaccine in Australia for protection
against myxomatosis in rabbits.
Farm animals such as sheep, goats, alpaca and cattle require an annual 5 in 1 type vaccination.
You can also purchase individual doses or a small quantity of vaccine and worm drench from our clinic to treat your individual farm animals or small herds.
Puppies and kittens at our practice are given
vaccination boosters at 6-8wks of age, 10-12wks and at 16-18wks
weeks of age - to maximise their protection against infectious
disease.
Parvovirus, canine cough and cat flu (feline
respiratory disease) are all highly infectious and are a
significant problem in the Wollondilly, Goulburn and Macarthur
areas.
An annual booster maintains best protection. A
pet that has missed their booster can be brought back to full
protection by re-vaccinating at any age!
Your puppy or kitten is not fully protected until
after their final booster at 4 months of
age.
