Vaccines are a short cut to your dog or cat's natural immune response. It is a tiny, highly modified form of the actual disease designed to trigger an immune response just as though your pet had encountered and defeated the disease. As a result of the vaccinations, your pet is left with antibodies to recognize and fight the actual disease should he or she encounter it.

Contact your local veterinarian for information such as when your animal should begin vaccines, and how often they should receive them while in their puppy stage. As an adult dog or cat, it is important to re-vaccinate each year to maintain immunity levels.Dogs and cats receive different types of vaccines.

Vaccines for dogs include the following:

DHLPPC vaccine?…
