Its easier than you think... Vaccinate
your pet at home.
It's Much Less Expensive You can save a
lot of money by vaccinating at home.
It's Easy While you may
feel a little nervous the first time, it gets easier every time you do it. Pets, by the way, feel far less pain then we do
from shots. Most vaccines are given under the loose skin on the back of the neck, where their mothers picked them up and carried
them when they were babies.
It's Guaranteed Fresh Because
we sell so many, we receive fresh vaccines every week. All of our vaccines are shipped with ice packs in an insulated carton
and in strict accordance with federal regulations. We also recommend that you request Next Day or Second Day Air service when
you order vaccines.
It's Less Stressful On Your Pet The
comfortable surroundings of your home are the most natural and relaxed place to vaccinate your pet. And it's convinient to
you.
How To Vaccinate Your Pet
Then inject . . . it's easy!
Most vaccines may be given just beneath the
skin. For dogs, the best and least sensitive area is the loose skin on the back of the neck - where their mothers picked them
up and carried them when they were young. Simply lift the skin, insert the needle, pull back slightly on the syringe plunger
to be sure the needle is not in a blood vessel (if it is, blood will enter the syringe as you pull back the plunger), and
then administer the vaccine (see photo, left). This method is called subcutaneous vaccination (under the skin).
In cats, inject most combination vaccines subcutaneously under the loose skin over one of the shoulders. Feline leukemia
(FeLV) vaccines are usually given under the skin on the outside of the left rear leg. Rabies vaccine is generally given by
your veterinarian into the right rear leg.
Many vaccines may also be given intramuscularly
(into the muscle). However, given the choice, the subcutaneous method described above is the easiest and safest way for you
to administer vaccines. Note: If your pet is sensitive or hard to handle, ask someone to help hold your pet while you give
the vaccine.
Use Needles & Syringes Only Once With any
vaccine or injectable medication, always use a separate sterile needle and syringe for each injection. Safely dispose of all
used syringes and needles.
