At Concord Veterinary Clinic, we have provided residents of Concord, CA, with pet vaccination services for many years. It's very important to keep your pet up to date with their vaccinations. Read on to learn why.

Keeping Your Pet from Getting Preventable Diseases 

There are several diseases that they can get even if they are at home. They include leptospirosis, canine or feline parvovirus, cat flu syndrome, canine viral hepatitis, kennel cough, and even rabies. Vaccines can prevent that from ever happening, ensuring your pet remains happy and healthy.

Keeping People From Getting Sick From Pets And Vice Versa

The main reason is that the vaccines are given to act as a preventative. Once the pet gets one of these diseases, the chances of its being able to be cured go steadily down to zero. The vaccine keeps them from getting it at all. Not only do vaccines ensure your pet’s health, but they also help you avoid potentially expensive treatment.

It seems like an anti-vaccination movement has also gripped animal owners as well as pets. They seem to believe that vaccines cause more harm than good, which is not the case. This has allowed some diseases that were thought to be eradicated to come back again. Vaccinations can put those diseases out to the pasture again.
