Protection & Prevention
At Georgian Animal Hospital, we focus on preventive care to keep common diseases and disorders from developing in the first place.
When combined with regular wellness exams, pet vaccinations and parasite prevention is the support for your animal's routine healthcare.
Preventive care gives your pet the best chance at a long, healthy life. Our team will work with you to create a custom preventive care plan for your cat or dog, tailored to their unique needs.
Cat & Dog Vaccination Schedule
Keeping your dog or cat's vaccinations current is essential when it comes to protecting your furry friend against a range of highly contagious, often serious, diseases.
In their first year of life, kittens and puppies should receive the following vaccines to help protect them from a range of serious diseases.
Kitten Vaccinations
Kittens need to be protected from disease such as rhinotracheitis, calicivirus, panleukopenia, chlamydia, feline leukemia, and rabies.
Your new kitten will require a series of vaccinations spaced over the course of a few months to help keep them healthy and thriving. Please speak with our team to learn more about a vaccination schedule for your kitten.
Puppy Vaccinations
Our team recommends that you protect your puppy against diseases with vaccinations that protect against DHPP (distemper, hepatitis, parainfluenza, parvovirus), bordetella, leptospirosis, and rabies.
Your new puppy will require a series of vaccinations spaced over the course of a few months to help keep them healthy and thriving. Please speak with our team to learn more about a vaccination schedule for your puppy.
Parasite Prevention
Parasites can pose a serious threat to the health and longevity of your cat or dog, and in some cases can even be transmitted to other pets or people living in your household.
Our parasite prevention products can help protect your dog or cat from the following common parasites including fleas, ticks, ear mites, heartworms and more.
Spaying & Neutering
Spaying or neutering your cat or dog prevents the birth of unwanted litters, protects your pet against various illnesses, and can help to prevent unwanted behaviours.
These common surgical procedures are performed under general anesthesia at our Parry Sound animal clinic.
Microchipping
At Georgian Animal Hospital, we can place a tiny microchip under your pet's skin as a permanent form of pet identification.
Pets that are microchipped have a better chance of being reunited with their owners if they become lost.
