Recommended Vaccines for Dogs

At Sierra Animal Hospital, we recommend vaccinating your dog with the following vaccines:

  • Rabies
  • Distemper Parvo (DHPPC)
  • Kennel Cough (Bordetella)

For those with large animals, lots of land, or living in outlying areas, we also suggest the Leptospira vaccine.

Rattlesnake Vaccine

For dogs at risk of rattlesnake encounters, we strongly advise vaccination to provide protection. This preventative measure can lead to significant cost savings over the dog’s lifetime.

The Rattlesnake vaccine is typically administered 2-3 times a year based on your dog’s weight and size.

Recommended Vaccines for Cats

For indoor cats, we recommend vaccinating with the following vaccines

  • Rabies
  • FDVRC 4 in 1
  • Feline Leukemia

After completing the kitten shot series, all vaccines should be administered annually.
