Puppy and Kitten Exams

We recommend scheduling a visit with our vet as soon as your new puppy or kitten comes home with you. Regular puppy and kitten exams and immunizations should begin at about 6 weeks of age. Our vet will go over the immunization schedule and what is needed to keep your new pet strong and healthy.

Exams and Vaccinations for Puppies and Kittens

We recommend that you schedule an office visit with our veterinarian as soon as your new baby pet arrives. Regular exams and vaccinations should begin at approximately 6 weeks of age. Our vet will go over the immunization schedule and what is needed to keep your new pet strong and healthy. Puppy or kitten health issues to discuss with the doctor may include:

Vaccinations
Diet and nutrition
Spaying and neutering
Congenital health issues
Housebreaking
Dental care
Parasite testing
Deworming
Flea and heartworm control
Obedience training
Behavioral concerns

Vaccinations are crucial for preventing life-threatening contagious diseases. Both kittens and puppies need vaccine boosters every 2 to 3 weeks until 4 months of age. Keep puppies away from parks and any areas where dogs may roam and keep kittens indoors until the vaccine series is complete.
