Core and non-core vaccinations are essential components of responsible pet care. At Hub City Animal Hospital, we prioritize the health and well-being of your furry companions, and vaccinations play a crucial role in their preventive healthcare.
Core Vaccinations
- Canine Distemper Vaccine: Protects against a highly contagious and potentially fatal viral disease affecting dogs.
- Rabies Vaccine: Essential for preventing rabies, a deadly viral infection that can affect both animals and humans.
- Canine Parvovirus Vaccine: Guards against a severe and highly contagious virus causing gastrointestinal issues in dogs.
- Feline Herpesvirus, Calicivirus, and Panleukopenia (FVRCP) Vaccine: Shields against common and potentially fatal feline diseases.
- Feline Rabies Vaccine: Provides crucial protection against rabies in cats.
Hub City Animal Hospital is committed to exclusively using purevax vaccinations in cats. These are nonadjuvanted vaccines, which are the safest option to prevent vaccine-associated tumors in cats. This is not a policy that every veterinarian clinic adheres to and the repercussions can be deadly.
Non-Core Vaccinations
- Bordetella (Kennel Cough) Vaccine: Recommended for dogs in communal living environments, groomed or boarded, to prevent kennel cough.
- Leptospirosis Vaccine: Protects against a bacterial infection that can cause kidney failure in dogs and cats.
- Canine Influenza Vaccine: Especially relevant for dogs in areas with outbreaks of canine influenza.
- Feline Leukemia Virus (FeLV) Vaccine: Advised for outdoor or multi-cat household cats to prevent feline leukemia.
