Vaccinations

Protecting Your Pet from Preventable Diseases

Vaccinations are one of the simplest and most effective ways to protect your pet from serious, and often preventable, diseases. At Rocky Point Animal Hospital, we create personalized vaccination plans based on your pet’s age, lifestyle, health, and risk factors to help keep them healthy throughout every stage of life. Combined with routine wellness care, vaccinations provide an essential foundation for lifelong health and well-being.

Personalized Protection for Every Pet

Not every pet requires the same vaccines. Our veterinarians will discuss your pet’s daily routine, travel habits, boarding or grooming needs, and overall health to determine which vaccines are most appropriate. We offer both core vaccinations, which are recommended for nearly every pet, and lifestyle-based vaccines for pets with additional exposure risks.

Common Core Vaccines

While every pet’s vaccination schedule is tailored to their individual needs, core vaccines are recommended for most dogs and cats to protect against serious infectious diseases.

Core vaccines for dogs include:

• Rabies
• Distemper
• Adenovirus (Hepatitis)
• Parvovirus

Core vaccines for cats include:

• Rabies
• Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis (Herpesvirus)
• Calicivirus
• Panleukopenia (FVRCP)

Depending on your pet’s lifestyle, age, travel habits, and risk of exposure, our veterinarians may also recommend additional non-core vaccines, such as Bordetella, Leptospirosis, Lyme disease, Canine Influenza, or Feline Leukemia (FeLV), to provide more comprehensive protection.
