Vaccination isn't only important for people, it's crucial for canines too! If you received a furry friend as a gift over the holiday season, don't forget to get the required vaccinations for the new year. Waipahu Waikele Pet Hospital of Waipahu, HI is happy to offer their pet services and pet medicine resources to ensure all pet owners have healthy, vaccinated pets.

When puppies are not vaccinated at a young age, they are put at risk for serious diseases such as rabies, hepatitis, and distemper. Plan on getting the appropriate vaccinations to protect against these canine diseases as soon as your new puppy is integrated into the family. Waipahu Waikele Pet Hospital is more than happy to go over the vaccinations that your new canine family member will need, and how often you should bring them in for a check-up. In general, dogs should be vaccinated on an annual basis.

Waipahu Waikele Pet Hospital reminds new dog owners that canine vaccinations are imperative, not just to keep your dog strong and healthy, but also to protect your human family against these serious diseases. When a new puppy is vaccinated as soon as possible and kept up-to-date on their vaccinations with each veterinary check-up, parents can rest assured that their human children are not at risk. Talk to the veterinary staff at Waipahu Waikele Pet Hospital today about how canine vaccinations can protect humans.
