Importance of Dog Vaccinations

Vaccinations are a vital defense for your dog against diseases that can be painful, contagious, and even life-threatening. In a bustling urban environment like New York City, your dog is frequently exposed to other pets at parks, boarding facilities, and on walks. Vaccines help prevent the spread of dangerous diseases and protect not just your dog but public health by reducing the risk of illnesses such as rabies, which can affect both pets and people.

Core Vaccines Every Dog Needs

We recommend these essential vaccines for all dogs to ensure they are protected:
  • Rabies: A fatal disease, required by law to protect pets and families.
  • Distemper: A serious virus affecting the respiratory and nervous systems.
  • Parvovirus: Highly contagious and deadly in puppies, causing severe gastrointestinal illness.
  • Adenovirus: Protects against infectious hepatitis, a dangerous liver disease.
  • Leptospirosis: A bacterial infection that affects the kidneys and liver, also transmissible to humans.

Additional Vaccines for Dogs Based on Their Lifestyle

Depending on their daily activities, some dogs face additional risks. We offer vaccines to protect against:
  • Bordetella (Kennel Cough): Required for boarding, grooming, or doggy daycare.
  • Canine Influenza: Protection against H3N8 and H3N2 strains, which spread quickly in social settings.
  • Lyme Disease: For dogs that are exposed to ticks during outdoor activities or travel.

Tailored Vaccination Plans for Your Dog

Every dog is unique, and their vaccination needs vary. Puppies require a series of vaccines in their first months, while adult dogs need booster shots to maintain immunity. Senior dogs may require adjusted schedules based on their health status. At Pure Paws, we design personalized vaccination schedules to ensure your dog gets the right protection at the right time, with no unnecessary vaccinations.
