Annual Vaccines

Most pet owners know the importance of puppy vaccinations. However, it’s also important to get your dog regularly vaccinated as they grow. Certain vaccines will need boosters to stay effective. Plus, older dogs have specific health concerns and may require different care than they did as puppies.

Our annual vaccine package makes it easy for you to keep up with your dog’s health every year. The package includes rabies, DHPP, bordetella, and leptospirosis vaccines, as well as a heartworm test. It’s quick, simple, and reliable.

Individual Vaccines

All dogs have unique needs. In addition to our convenient vaccine packages, we also offer individual vaccines at a la carte prices. This allows you to customize your pet’s care and add certain vaccines that are not included in their annual package.

Individual vaccines are also a great option for dogs who have received some of their annual vaccines, but are missing others. If another vet has treated your dog in the past, bring your vaccine records to your Texavet appointment. We’ll help you decide which individual vaccines are right for your dog.

Wellness Exams

Pets need regular check-ups, just like humans. We offer annual wellness visits to check on your dog or cat’s overall health.

During your pet’s wellness visit, you will also have plenty of time to talk with the vet and ask questions. This way, you’ll be able to be proactive about your pet’s health in the future.

Vaccinations

Diseases

Rabies

Rabies is one of the most well-known animal diseases, and for good reason. Rabies spreads via the saliva of an infected animal. If your pet is bitten by an animal with rabies, then the disease can spread rapidly. Once the signs of rabies appear, the disease is almost always fatal.

Bordetella

Bordetella is a type of bacteria that can affect dogs. It’s one of the most common causes of kennel cough and other respiratory illnesses. Kennel cough can cause a loud and persistent cough in dogs, as well as sneezing and nasal congestion. Bordetella vaccines can prevent the spread of this disease. Every Bordetella vaccine manufactures today has a 1 year expiration date, but some grooming and boarding facilities require this vaccine every 6 months.

DHPP

DHPP is a combination vaccine that is important for the health of all dogs. It’s often called the “5-in-1 vaccine” as it protects against five contagious and serious viruses: canine distemper virus, canine hepatitis (CAV-1), kennel cough (CAV-2), canine parainfluenza, and canine parvovirus. Dogs will need a series of DHPP vaccines, though the exact number will vary depending on their age during the first injection and specific risk factors.

Leptospirosis

Leptospirosis is a disease that spreads through the urine of infected animals, usually via a contaminated water source. Dogs typically contract this disease by drinking or swimming in water that was contaminated by a wild animal such as squirrels, rabbits and amphibians or infected livestock. Leptospirosis can affect dogs not only living in the rural areas but also dogs living in the woods and suburb areas. Leptospirosis can also spread to humans. Dogs who are at risk for contracting leptospirosis can be vaccinated against the disease. Your vet can help you evaluate your dog’s lifestyle so you can decide if this vaccine is right for their situation.

Canine Influenza

Canine influenza is a contagious disease that can have serious health consequences for your pet. Severe cases can even be life-threatening. Luckily, there are canine influenza vaccines that can protect dogs against the most common strains of the virus. The canine influenza vaccine is a good choice for dogs that travel on the national show circuit. However, some boarding facilities still require this so please check with them if needed.
