Why Have your Westie vaccinated
Unless properly vaccinated,
your dog runs the risk of contracting one of several possibly fatal infectious diseases.
Parvovirus and Distemper probably represent the most widespread threat, but it is also
necessary to protect against Hepatitis and Leptospirosis.
Some Hepatitis vaccines can
also protect against a virus implicated in the 'Kennel Cough' syndrome.
In addition...
Vaccines are also available to protect against Parainfluenza and Bordetelia
bronchiseptica, also involved in 'Kennel Cough'.
