Our Puppy & Kitten Packs

There are two general groups of vaccines to consider: core and non-core vaccines. Core vaccines protect against diseases that are more serious or potentially fatal. These are diseases found in all areas of North America and more easily transmitted than non-core diseases.

We offer puppy and kitten packs, which include:

In addition to these packs, we perform a courtesy doctor examination during first-time visits. Do you have questions about our puppy and kitten packs? Visit our conveniently located clinic today orĀ contact us.Ā  Ā 

Additional Information

Generally, you should start vaccinating your dog or cat when they are six to eight weeks old. Additionally, your pet may need vaccinations every two to four weeks until they are 16 weeks old.Ā 

Core vaccines, including DHLPP, are usually included in initial vaccinations. It is often recommended that pets receive boosters one year after the first vaccination and every three years after that.Ā 

Whether your pet needs non-core vaccines, such as those for feline leukemia, bordetella, and canine influenza, will depend on their risk factors and lifestyle. Consult our veterinarians to determine if these vaccines are necessary.Ā 

Rabies vaccinations are crucial for dogs and cats in Texas. As outlined previously, Texas law requires dogs and cats to receive their rabies vaccine when they are four months old. After the initial booster, you may need to revaccinate your pet every one to three years.Ā Ā 

Vaccinations can protect your beloved pet from potentially life-threatening diseases. Vaccines will stimulate their immune systems, allowing them to fight off infections and remain healthy.Ā Ā 

Beyond protecting your pet, vaccinations are important for:Ā 

  1. Public health:Ā Many pet diseases can be transmitted to humans. By vaccinating your pet, you can protect your community’s well-being.Ā Ā 
  2. Cost-efficiency:Ā Preventing diseases through vaccination is much more cost-effective than treating them once they occur.Ā Ā 
  3. Establishing herd immunity:Ā When a significant portion of a pet population is vaccinated, diseases are less likely to spread. Vaccinating your pet is key for establishing herd immunity.Ā Ā 
  4. Complying with regulations:Ā In states like Texas, certain vaccines, such as those for rabies, are required by law. Additionally, proof of vaccination is often necessary forĀ boarding, grooming, or traveling with your pet.Ā

Started taking my cockatoo to get his beak trimmed. My Spunky can be a little moody at times. But he absolutely loves Dr Hollaway. We also had an issue which turned into an emergency with our dog Bindi. They squeezed us in with spunky's appointment. They are very accommodating. Dr Ognibene was so good with Bindi's condition and explained it so we could understand. Unfortunately she did pass. We thank them for everything.
Our first experience with Quakertown Veterinary Clinic was during one of the scariest moments we’ve had with our dog. He had his first seizure, and of course it happened on the Fourth of July weekend. From the very first phone call, everyone was compassionate, knowledgeable, and incredibly reassuring.Kelly was the first person we spoke with, and she was so kind and caring. She calmly talked us through everything and helped us feel less overwhelmed before we even arrived at the clinic.When we got there, we were greeted by Olivia Sullivan, who was absolutely wonderful. She listened carefully to everything we had to say, asked thoughtful questions, and immediately put us at ease. Her kindness and compassion meant so much to us.We were then seen by Dr. Ian Civco, and I truly cannot say enough great things about him. He was patient, compassionate, and wonderful with our dog, Elliott. He thoroughly explained Elliott’s blood work, his diagnosis, the medication he would be starting, what we could expect over the coming days, and all of the potential side effects. He took the time to answer every question we had and never made us feel rushed. Before we left, Dr. Civco even encouraged us to call him anytime if Elliott had another emergency, which gave us tremendous peace of mind.I was also pleasantly surprised by how fair the pricing was. During an emergency holiday visit, I honestly expected the cost to be much higher.The entire team at Quakertown Veterinary Clinic went above and beyond during one of the most stressful experiences our family has faced. Their kindness, professionalism, and genuine care for both their patients and their families were exceptional. We are so grateful for everyone who helped Elliott, and we will absolutely be bringing all of our dogs back in the future.Thank you all so much for the incredible care you provided. We will never forget your compassion.
