Protect Your Pets Against Illness & Disease

Preventative care for your pets starts at a young age, and the most critical step you should take to protect your pet today and long into the future is with vaccines. At Great Falls Animal Hospital, we are advocates of vaccinating your pets, as it not only protects them but can protect your family from contracting diseases as well. Our veterinarians have extensive experience and can discuss with you the appropriate shots for your pet.

Reach out to Great Falls Animal Hospital today at (703) 759-2330 to schedule an appointment for your pet’s vaccinations. We care for animals in Northern Virginia and Washington, D.C.

What Are Vaccines?

Vaccines are deactivated viruses or bacteria that, in small doses, are delivered into your pet’s body, causing their immune system to develop antibodies that will fight off that specific illness. If your pet comes into contact with that disease in the future, they will most likely be able to fight it off without ever showing any signs of sickness. It’s important to know that not all vaccines that are available need to be administered to your pet. Our Great Falls vaccination vets will decide which vaccinations are appropriate depending on certain factors about your pet, including age, environment, and breed. We won’t give them anything just for the sake of giving them something because it’s available. We have your pet’s best interests in mind.

The most common vaccinations for dogs and cats include:

Vaccinating New Pets

If you are a parent of a newborn pet, we highly recommend you schedule their first round of vaccinations. Kittens and puppies are highly susceptible to many infectious diseases. Their mother’s milk provides a limited natural immunity that eventually wears off. We won’t give you new pet all their vaccinations at once, but will instead spread them out over approximately 12 to 16 weeks.

Don’t wait to schedule your vaccinations! Reach out to our Great Falls veterinarians today to get started!

My family has been taking our pets to Quakertown Veterinary Clinic for years and have always had the best service and care.
Dr. Barin has taken care of McKinley for the last decade. She knows our dogs well and takes us on time!
I have been coming here for a long time and even when I have moved out of State I call for any concerns or advise and try to come to Dr Barin for all checkups. Dr Barin is patient , very knowledgeable and always easy to reach. She has gone over and beyond what anyone could expect from their Vet. She understands and listens and answers all questions and concerns. The staff is always pleasant, courteous and professional. During emergency visits with our dogs there was always a quick response and the other Vets present were all competent and treated us with utmost care and concern. I would not go to any other place for my pets.
