Vaccination

Pet Owners Advice:

Vaccination:

After Vaccination, your pet should:

* Take it easy the rest of the day

* Eat as usual

* If it is a young individual who is vaccinated for the first time, it should not meet other individuals who are at risk of carrying infection or staying in larger groups of animals for 3 weeks. Only 3 weeks after vaccination is it expected that the animal has achieved adequate protection.

The basic vaccination consists of:

* 2 doses at 3-4 week intervals, of which the first dose is given at a minimum of 8 weeks of age.

* A third dose is given 6-12 months after the second dose.  

You should continue to vaccinate your animal regularly throughout its life.  

* NOTE *

* Side effects are uncommon but may occur.

Always contact your Veterinary Clinic if you suspect that your animal has had a side effect from the vaccine.

* In rare cases, animals may develop symptoms after a vaccination. The symptoms become milder and go away faster than in unvaccinated animals.
