Why Dog and Cat Vaccinations Matter In Pasadena, TX

Vaccines shouldn’t be thought of as a recurring cost; they’re an investment. The diseases vaccines protect against are dangerous to your pet and treatments are expensive to you. Some of the diseases prevented by vaccines are zoonotic, meaning they could be contracted by your human family, too. By investing in dog and cat vaccinations, you protect your pet, your family, the greater Pasadena, TX community, and your wallet all at the same time. At Spencer Animal Hospital, we deliver the safest, most effective vaccines for pets of Pasadena. Call us today at (281) 476-0066 to schedule an vaccination appointment for your pet today.

Adult Cat and Dog Vaccines

After your pet’s initial series, we tailor their continuing vaccination protocol based off of their lifestyle. However, there are still core vaccines we recommend for all pets.

Core Dog Vaccinations

  • DAPP: every three years
  • Rabies: every three years if given on or before the revaccination due-date. If past due, the vaccine will be repeated again in one year.
Additional Vaccines Based on Lifestyle:

  • Bordetella (kennel cough)
  • Canine influenza
  • Lyme
  • Leptospirosis
  • Rattlesnake vaccine

The additional vaccines are based on your dog’s exposure to risk. We administer all of them on a yearly basis. However, if your dog’s risk of encountering rattlesnakes if very high, then we administer the rattlesnake vaccine twice a year.

Core Cat Vaccinations:

  • FVRCP: every three years
  • Rabies: every year
Additional Vaccines Based on Lifestyle:

  • Feline leukemia

Feline leukemia is only necessary for outdoor cats and is administered on a yearly basis.

Don’t Forget Your Wellness Exam
