Vaccinations help keep your animals healthy and happy. At Crossroads Vet we offer full vaccines for your pets.

Because we are geared to care for your individual pet, we don’t prescribe to the school of blanket health care. We administer vaccines based solely and completely on the needs of your pet.

As we mentioned in the section on puppies and kittens, they need to be assessed as soon as possible.

In the case of kittens, we believe that prior to vaccination, they should be tested for feline leukemia and FIV (feline AIDS) because certain medications are not effective if the kitten has already been exposed to either of these diseases.

When it comes to worming, we feel that all puppies and kittens should be de-wormed twice, fecal exams are also necessary.

All puppies and kittens are tested, as early as possible, for intestinal parasites.

If you chose to get a pet from the Humane Society, or take in a stray, or in some other way inherit an older pet, it should be brought in for a full physical exam as soon as possible.

Dogs over six months should always be tested for heartworm.
