The Core Vaccines Your Puppy Needs to Thrive

The thought of your little ball of fur getting sick or injured is enough to make any pet owner shudder. Vaccinating your pet is an excellent way to protect them from future illnesses. 

 

Vaccines contain the same germs that cause the disease but are significantly weakened so your pet’s body is able to fight off the intruders and doesn’t fall sick in the process. The purpose of the vaccine is to stimulate the immune system to produce antibodies, or the body’s natural fighting agents, to fight off the weakened germs in the system. 

 

Let’s start with the basics: your dog needs to get vaccinated against some pretty nasty illnesses. Including: Canine parvovirus, distemper, canine hepatitis, and rabies. They might also need certain non-core vaccines such as Bordetella or Leptospira. All of these diseases can be pretty serious for your dog. 

 

If you don't vaccinate your pooch against them, he could end up in a lot of pain or even have to be put down. So make sure you talk to your vet about what vaccines your dog needs and when to get them.

 

Dog vaccination is a critical aspect to every dog owner because it protects your dog from life-threatening illnesses and deadly diseases. The best place to start your dog’s vaccination is with your veterinarian, as they will be able to give you the appropriate information on where and when you should bring your dog.
