Choosing the Right Vaccines for Your Pet
At Central Broward Animal Hospital, our veterinarians determine which vaccines your pet needs to stay healthy. Every dog and cat is different, and we offer tailored care to reflect that. We’ll create a vaccine schedule based on risk factors such as age and lifestyle to maintain your pet’s protection throughout their lives.
Tailored Vaccination Schedule Best Suited to Your Pet’s Needs
We recommend puppies and kittens begin a vaccination series during their first year of life to boost their immune system. After this first series, adult cats and dogs require booster vaccines throughout their lives to maintain their immunity. The frequency of boosters depends on the type of vaccine given. While most dog and cat vaccines are annual, the canine rabies vaccine is a 3-year vaccine and Bordetella is administered twice a year. Our veterinarians will re-evaluate your pet’s lifestyle at their annual exam to determine which vaccines they need to stay healthy, so your pet’s vaccine protocol may change as they age.
