Pet Vaccinations
At Happy Tails Veterinary Clinic in Wellington, FL, we provide comprehensive vaccination services tailored to meet the unique needs of your furry companions.
Why Vaccinations Matter for Your Pet’s Health
Vaccinations are essential in preventing a range of serious and potentially life-threatening illnesses. For puppies and kittens, vaccinations help build immunity during their critical early development. For adult pets, regular boosters ensure ongoing protection. By staying up-to-date on vaccinations, your pet can avoid diseases such as rabies, distemper, parvovirus, and feline leukemia.
Vaccines work by stimulating your pet’s immune system to recognize and fight off specific pathogens. This proactive approach to care is not only effective but also much less costly and stressful than treating preventable diseases after they occur. Additionally, some vaccinations are legally required, such as rabies vaccines, which are vital for public safety.

Each appointment begins with a thorough health assessment to confirm that your pet is in good condition for vaccination. Our veterinarians take the time to review your pet’s medical history and discuss any specific concerns you may have.
When Should Your Pet Be Vaccinated?
Puppies and kittens should begin their vaccination series as early as six to eight weeks of age, with additional doses administered every few weeks until they are about 16 weeks old. Adult pets require booster shots at regular intervals to maintain immunity. Senior pets may also need specific vaccines based on their health and lifestyle.
If you have recently adopted a pet or moved to the Wellington, FL, area, it is important to schedule a vaccination appointment to ensure their records are current. Regular wellness visits allow our veterinarians to keep track of your pet’s vaccination schedule and make timely updates as needed.
