The Importance of Vaccinations Year Round

Pets, like people, need vaccinations that can protect them from serious health issues and diseases. At Augusta Animal Clinic, we understand the important role vaccines play in pet care. If you’re in the Indianapolis, IN area, and you’re looking for a vet, we’re here and ready to help. Whether your pet just needs routine vaccinations and other preventative care, we can assist you.

Preventative Care

Just like their human owners, pets need preventative care to keep them healthy and happy. That pet care can be in the form of good quality food, affection, and attention, but there’s more to the story than that. Pets also need to have vaccinations, flea and tick prevention, heartworm prevention, and other help. When you work with an Indianapolis vet you can trust and rely on, you know your pet is getting the preventative protection they need.

Benefits of Vaccination

Vaccines are good for pets because they stop them from getting diseases that can be avoided. Pets are vaccinated against rabies, for example, because it’s a deadly disease. It can also be passed on to humans and other animals, so it’s important to make sure your pet is vaccinated against it. Our veterinarian will design a vaccination schedule based upon your pet’s medical needs and environment.

Flea and Tick Prevention

Preventative treatment for fleas and ticks matters, as well. There are diseases that these creatures carry, and they can also make your pet ill. Ticks can carry Lyme disease while fleas spread infection.

Heartworm Prevention

Heartworm can be deadly, and dogs that are given preventative treatments are at much lower risk. Our veterinarian will recommend the best heartworm prevention medication based upon your pet’s individual needs.

I am beyond pleased with our experience at Augusta Animal Clinic. We made the decision to switch vets due to our German Shepherd's symptoms not subsiding after repeated visits. I called Augusta to inquire about availability and Lisa was able to promptly schedule an appointment. When we arrived, everyone was extremely friendly, professional, and courteous. Our dog gets highly anxious at the vet, but Dr. Dave was extremely patient and understanding and put him at ease. We knew immediately from the questions he asked that he was extremely knowledgable and highly experienced. He displayed genuine care for our concerns and was able to quickly provide a diagnosis and treatment plan. We couldn't be happier with our decision to switch vets and look forward to working with them again. I cannot recommend Augusta enough!

I had a diabetic cat with allergies. I have gone to multiple vets over the years and have more experience than most do with vets because mine was special needs. Dr Dave is the best. The reality of vet care is that it is expensive, but he never tried to push me to get procedures/medicines etc. Always gave various options and let me know his professional opinion and then we work together to figure out what was best for my cat. This clinic is the best because you always get consistent care (all the staff have been there for years and are very experienced), can always get an appt that day if you need, and Dr Dave understands not just the medical needs of your pet, but also how to talk to and work with the people who own the pets.
