If you have a pet in Hallandale Beach, FL, then you know how important good veterinary care is for your animal. Keeping your animal healthy is a crucial part of being a good pet owner, but few people understand the importance of vaccines. Neighborhood Veterinary Center is here to help explain why getting your pet vaccinated is so important.
Vaccines for pets are a critical part of ensuring they do not contract deadly diseases such as rabies and distemper. Vaccination for several diseases, particularly those transmittable to humans (such as rabies), is required by law in Florida. Fortunately, this is a relatively easy procedure for your pet.
Veterinary vaccines are administered every day in our clinic, and our doctors have given thousands of dogs, cats, and other pets their shots over the years with virtually no adverse effects. Unfortunately, our doctors have also seen the effects of disease on animals that have not been vaccinated. Severe illness and death have affected animals who did not have owners who got them vaccinated.
One of the most common reasons people give for not wanting to get their animal vaccinated is the mistaken belief that their pet cannot contract a particular disease because their animal does not live with other animals. Unfortunately, some of these diseases can be transferred between species, meaning that your animal could get these diseases from you. Furthermore, it's important to vaccinate any animal that might be boarded, animals that visit public dog parks, and even animals that might escape from a backyard.
If your animal is behind on its shots, don't worry! Getting them caught up is relatively simple, and multiple vaccines can be administered on the same day, saving you multiple trips to the vet's office. If you have a pet in Hallandale Beach, FL, that needs its vaccines, call Neighborhood Veterinary Center today at (954) 505-3757.
