Personalized Vaccinations for Dogs & Cats

Vaccinations are an important part of protecting your pet from serious and potentially preventable diseases. At Orchard Park Veterinary Medical Center, we believe vaccination plans should be tailored to the individual pet—not based on a one-size-fits-all schedule.

During your pet’s wellness visit, our veterinarians consider their age, lifestyle, environment, travel, exposure to other animals, and overall health when recommending pet vaccinations in Orchard Park. This helps us determine which vaccinations are appropriate and how often your pet should receive them.

Recommended Vaccines for Dogs & Cats

Vaccines may be recommended based on your pet’s age, health, and individual risk factors. Common vaccinations for dogs include:

• Rabies
• DHPP
• Leptospirosis
• Bordetella
• Lyme disease
• Canine influenza

For cats, recommended vaccinations may include:

• Rabies
• FVRCP
• Feline leukemia (FeLV)

Some vaccines are routinely recommended for most pets, while others may be especially important based on lifestyle or potential exposure. For example, a dog who frequently visits boarding facilities or dog parks may have different vaccination needs than a dog who spends most of their time at home. Our team will help you understand which vaccines are appropriate for your pet.

Keeping Protection Up to Date

Vaccination is an ongoing part of preventive care. After the initial vaccine series, pets typically need follow-up boosters to maintain protection. Depending on the vaccine and your pet’s individual circumstances, boosters may eventually transition to a three-year schedule when appropriate.

Our vaccination recommendations are informed by current veterinary guidelines, including recommendations from the American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA), the American Association of Feline Practitioners (AAFP), and Cornell University College of Veterinary Medicine.

We’re here to make Orchard Park pet vaccination decisions simple and personalized, helping your dog or cat stay protected.
