Low-Cost Vaccination Solutions

Vaccinations are an important step in keeping your pets healthy and well-socialized. It is your responsibility as a pet owner to be sure your pet is not only protected against potential illness and disease, but it is also your responsibility to be sure your pet is not spreading infection to other animals. By getting your pets on a regular vaccination and deworming schedule, you are benefiting the entire pet community.

An unvaccinated pet poses the risks of being infected, infecting other pets, or infecting members of your family. If an unvaccinated pet becomes ill, the pet's veterinary bill for treatment will be far more expensive than the initial vaccination that could have prevented the illness or disease.

Vaccinations and exam fees at veterinary clinics can be costly and this is often a reason why pets become overdue on their yearly vaccines. Remember - rabies vaccines are not only to protect your pet, but also to protect YOU from contracting rabies.

Affordable vaccination (and microchip) clinic options are:

VIP PetCare (Costs available here.)

These clinic options are affordable because they elimiate the additional exam fee incurred at most veterinary hospitals. Although a vaccine clinic is not a substitute for all veterinary care, these shot clinics are an important and reasonable way to keep pets (and your family) healthy and happy. If you have a pet who has already contracted an illness, disease, or is injured, seek emergency care right away.

Please remember that you should never expose an unvaccinated pet to other animals. Dogs and cats should always be fully vaccinated before visiting the dog park or being allowed outside.
