Pet Vaccinations & Preventive Care
Our Halifax veterinarians can help you protect your cat or dog from a wide range of serious diseases and disorders with routine pet vaccinations and parasite prevention.
Protect Your Pet's Health & Vitality
At Lady Hammond Animal Hospital, we believe that preventive care is the key to a long and healthy life for dogs and cats. Our goal is to prevent diseases from impacting your pet's health in the first place.
When combined with a healthy lifestyle and routine checkups, vaccines and parasite prevention form the cornerstone of a thorough preventive care plan. These services aim to preserve your dog or cat's good health and avoid the need for treatment.
Your veterinarian can assess your companion's risk factors and lifestyle then work with you to create a preventive care plan to meet their needs.
Cat & Dog Vaccination Schedule
Keeping your dog or cat's vaccinations current is essential for protecting them against highly contagious, often serious, diseases.
In their first year of life, kittens and puppies should receive the following vaccines to help protect them from a range of serious diseases. Throughout adulthood regularly scheduled boosters are required to help maintain protection.

Spaying & Neutering
Spaying or neutering your cat or dog prevents the birth of unwanted litters, protects your pet against various illnesses, and can help to prevent undesirable behaviours.
These common surgical procedures are performed under general anesthesia at our Halifax clinic.

Parasite Prevention
Parasites pose a serious threat to the health and longevity of your cat or dog. In some cases, parasites can even be transmitted to people and other pets living in your household.
Our parasite prevention products can help protect your furry friend from a range of common parasites including fleas, ticks, ear mites, heartworms and more.
Microchipping
Microchipping for dogs and cats is a permanent form of identification that can help to increase the odds of your furry friend being returned to you if they become lost.
We can place a tiny microchip under your pet's skin during their first wellness checkup or their spay or neuter surgery. The process is virtually painless and your furry friend will not feel the microchip once it is in place.

Lady Hammond Animal Hospital is accepting new patients from across the Halifax Regional Municipality! We'd love to welcome you and your cat or dog into our veterinary family. Get in touch to book your companion's first appointment.
