Vaccinations

Having your pet vaccinated is a loving and responsible choice that protects them against a wide range of potentially devastating illnesses.

Protect Your Pet from Preventable Illnesses

Dogs and cats are living longer, healthier lives now than ever before. And this is partly due to the effectiveness of modern pet vaccines. Having your pet vaccinated safeguards them against a wide range of preventable diseases, and the risk of side effects is extremely low. Modern vaccines are safe, effective, and strongly recommended for all pets. In the case of the Rabies vaccine, vaccinating your pet is even required by law. At Animal Medical Hospital, we provide pet vaccinations in Hempstead and are here to provide the protection your furry friend needs.

Core and Lifestyle Vaccines for Dogs and Cats

Pet vaccines are divided into two primary categories: Core and lifestyle. Core vaccines are recommended for all pets because they protect against the diseases animals are most likely to encounter, including Rabies, Distemper, and Parvovirus.

Also known as non-core vaccines, lifestyle vaccines are recommended for some pets but not others. If, for example, your cat stays indoors, they may not need the same lifestyle vaccines as a cat who goes outside. And the Lyme Disease vaccine is commonly recommended for dogs who spend weekends hiking with their owners. The Bordetella vaccine is one of the most common lifestyle vaccines. It is recommended for dogs and cats who frequent boarding facilities, daycare centers, or other places where there are often a lot of other animals. When you visit Animal Medical Hospital, our veterinarians will get to know your pet and their risk factors to determine which lifestyle vaccines are most suitable for them.
