At Baker Animal Clinic in Stillwater, OK, we believe that one of the most important aspects of caring for your pet’s’ health is vaccinating him or her against possible diseases. There are a variety of diseases which affect our pets, and other animals, so proper vaccination is vital to protecting them from many types of illnesses.
It is important to consult with us about the unique risks of living in our region. We will be happy to discuss the benefits of protecting your pet with vaccinations, as well as, provide you with information on the required vaccinations for your pet.
It is our goal to provide the highest level of care for your pet, and vaccination is an integral part of your pets’ overall health.
Vaccinations are necessary for healthy living, but occasionally we see youngsters having reactions to the injections. These can look like fever (expressed as being lethargic, sleeping a lot, not playing), not eating, being sore at the injection site, slight vomiting or diarrhea or being grumpy. While these are expected, not all pets react the same, so if these signs are very severe or last more than 24 hours, we always advise calling us and discussing your pet’s reactions. Emergency care may be needed.
