Recommended Vaccinations
Vaccinations Can Prevent These Diseases...
Distemper - A widespread, and often fatal disease, which can cause vomiting, diarrhea, pneumonia and severe brain damage.
Adenovirus - The cause of infectious hepatitis and respiratory infections, respectively, CAV-1 virus produces serve damage to the cells of the liver. CAV-2 virus is part of the kennel cough complex in dogs.
Leptospirosis - A bacterial infection
which often leads to permanent kidney damage. It is very
contagious and spreads through contact with nasal secretions,
urine, or saliva of infected animals. 
Parainfluenza - Another part of the kennel cough complex. It is often a mild respiratory infection, but can be more severe in puppies and debilitated dogs.
Parovirus - A widespread and potentially fatal disease which may cause severe vomiting and diarrhea. It is especially dangerous in young dogs and individuals susceptible to the effects of dehydration.
Coronovirus - A highly contagious viral infection of the gastrointestinal tract which causes vomiting and diarrhea. Young puppies are particularly susceptible to this disease.
Rabies - A fatal viral infection of the
central nervous system that can affect all mammals, including
man. The virus is transmitted from animal to animal to
man primarily through the bite of an infected animal. Routine
vaccination is the key to controlling this dreaded disease. 
Bordetella - A bacteria that infects the upper respiratory tract. It is one of the many important contributing infectious agents in the kennel/canine cough complex.
Lyme Disease - A disease carried by ticks which infects both man and dogs. The disease can damage many of the dog's body systems, but most often causes fear, loss of appetite and lameness.
