The Universal Requirement: Rabies

  • Mandatory: Required by Indiana law for all dogs and cats.

  • Critical: Rabies is 100% fatal once symptoms appear and is zoonotic (can spread to humans). Vaccination protects both your pet and your family.

Dog Vaccinations

Core Vaccines (Recommended for all dogs)

  • DAPP: A 4-in-1 vaccine protecting against Distemper (nervous system attack), Adenovirus (liver/hepatitis), Parainfluenza (respiratory/Kennel Cough), and Parvovirus (deadly intestinal virus that lingers in environments).

  • Leptospirosis (Lepto): Protects against bacteria from wildlife urine that causes kidney/liver failure. This is zoonotic and can spread to your family.

  • Bordetella: Essential for dogs visiting parks, groomers, or boarding. Prevents contagious Kennel Cough

Lifestyle Vaccines (Based on exposure).

  • Canine Influenza (CIV): Protects against "Dog Flu" (H3N2/H3N8). Highly recommended for social dogs to prevent pneumonia.

  • Lyme Disease: For high-risk dogs (hunting, farm, or wooded areas) to prevent joint disease and kidney damage.

Cat Vaccinations

Core Vaccines (Recommended for all cats)

  • FVRCP (Feline Distemper): A combination shot for:

    • Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis: Severe respiratory issues and eye discharge.

    • Calicivirus: Painful mouth ulcers and lameness.

    • Panleukopenia: A highly contagious, life-threatening virus that attacks blood cells.

Lifestyle Vaccine

  • Feline Leukemia (FeLV): Essential for any cat with outdoor access. FeLV causes cancer and immune suppression; since it is irreversible and fatal, prevention is the only cure.
