Additional information on these vaccines and
diseases can be found below.
Dog Vaccinations
Distemper/Parvo, also known as DHLPPC. The following diseases are combined into this one vaccine.
Canine distemper virus causes diarrhea, fever, respiratory disease, seizures, and is often fatal.
Infectious canine hepatitis is spread through infected urine and is often fatal.
Leptospirosis, caused by a bacteria, can affect dogs of any age. This bacteria damages the liver and kidneys and can be passed to humans.
Parainfluenza virus is a common cause of upper respiratory disease.
Parvo virus is by far the most commonly encountered virus in this area. This virus causes severe watery diarrhea and depresses the immune system requiring aggressive veterinary treatment for recovery.
Corona virus also causes diarrhea though less severe than parvo virus.
Rabies vaccine protects against this fatal disease that is a threat to all mammals including people. Georgia law requires that dogs and cats be vaccinated against rabies. This disease is carried by local wildlife and any dog or cat involved in a fight with a wild animal should be suspect for rabies.
Kennel Cough also known as Bordetella is a stubborn respiratory infection that can keep dogs coughing. It is not usually fatal unless pneumonia develops. It is exceptionally contagious being spread air-borne like the common cold in people. |

Cat Vaccinations
Feline Distemper also known as FVRCPC. The following diseases are combined into one vaccine.
Feline Distemper or Panleukopenia virus causes fever, vomiting,
diarrhea, dehydration and is nearly always fatal. Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis, Feline Calici Virus and Chlamydia are causes of severe upper respiratory infections in cats
Feline Leukemia Virus suppresses the cat's immune system, leaving it unable to fight other infections. A few cats recover from leukemia, but if permanent infection occurs, death always results.
Rabies virus can infect cats. Contact with local wildlife can expose your cat to rabies. State law requires vaccination due to the potential spread of rabies from pets to humans.
We also offer vaccination against Feline Infectious Peritonitis. The incidence of FIP is lower than the above diseases. If your cat spends time outdoors, you may consider protecting it against FIP.
