Why are Dog Vaccinations Important?

Vaccinations are a crucial part of your dog’s preventive healthcare. Here’s why they matter:
​

Prevents Serious Illnesses – Vaccines protect your dog from deadly diseases like parvovirus, distemper, and hepatitis.

 

Boosts Immunity & Reduces Outbreaks – A vaccinated dog is less likely to contract and spread infectious diseases.

 

Required for Boarding & Travel – Many boarding facilities, doggy daycares, and airlines require up-to-date vaccinations.

 

Protects the Community – Vaccinating your pet also helps prevent the spread of diseases to other animals.

 

By keeping up with your dog’s vaccination schedule, you’re ensuring they stay healthy, active, and free from preventable infectious diseases.

Core & Non-Core Dog Vaccinations Explained

 

At Drummoyne Veterinary Hospital, we offer core and non-core vaccinations, depending on your dog’s needs.

Core Vaccinations (Essential for Every Dog)

 

These vaccines are mandatory as they protect against severe and highly contagious diseases -

Canine Parvovirus (CPV) – A deadly virus causing vomiting, diarrhoea, and dehydration.

Canine Distemper Virus (CDV) – Affects the respiratory and nervous systems, often fatal.

Canine Hepatitis (CAV) – Causes liver damage and can be life-threatening.

Non-Core Vaccinations (Recommended Based on Lifestyle)

 

Some vaccines are optional but highly recommended, depending on your dog's environment and exposure risks:

Bordetella (Kennel Cough) – Essential for dogs that socialise, board, or attend daycare.

Leptospirosis – Recommended if your dog is exposed to water sources, wildlife, or rodents

Canine Parainfluenza – Protects against highly contagious respiratory infections.
