Canine Vaccine
Duramune Max 5 includes:
 Distemper: Most dogs will be exposed to distemper virus in their lifetime. Distemper infection may cause cold-like symptoms and
convulsions; death may occur one to three weeks after infection. All dogs should be vaccinated for distemper in a puppy booster series
and then yearly as adults.
 Adenovirus type 2: This virus is spread by contact with urine, feces, and other secretions from infected animals. The liver is the
primary organ affected, and death is possible in severe cases.
 Parainfluenza: This is a virus of the respiratory tract and is a leading cause of infectious tracheobronchitis (ITB).
 Parvovirus 2b: This highly contagious and debilitating virus is spread through infected fecal material. It is a very hardy virus and
can survive in the environment for months to years. In severe cases, it can lead to shock and death. Vaccination against this disease is
very important in dogs, especially puppies. Some breeds require an additional puppy boosters against this virus; a technician will tell
you if this applies to your puppy.
Lepto: This is a serious bacterial disease of mammals such as dogs and humans. While many organs may be infected by the leptospirosis
bacteria, the liver and/or kidney are the most frequently affected. Diagnosis of lepto can be difficult, and if left untreated death may occur.
Lymes disease: The bacteria which causes Lyme disease in dogs and humans is carried by specific tick species. Lyme disease can be
difficult to diagnose because of the long incubation period and vague, arthritic, flu-like symptoms. As the disease progresses, Lyme causing
bacteria damages many different organs including the liver, heart, nervous system, and kidneys.
H3N8 (Dog Flu): The “canine influenza virus” is H3N8 influenza virus (not a human influenza virus) that was originally an equine (horse)
influenza virus. This virus has spread to dogs and can now be transmitted between dogs. The symptoms of this illness in dogs are cough, runny
nose and fever; however, a small proportion of dogs (especially Greyhounds) can develop severe disease.
Bordetella: This is the primary causative agent of infectious tracheobronchitis (ITB). Dogs exposed to high-population situations such as
daycare, groomers, shelters, dog parks, and boarding facilities are at high risk. These environments can increase stress and exposure to disease.
Feline Vaccines
Fel-O-Vax PCT+CaliciVax Includes:
 Feline viral rhinotracheitis: This is the most common upper respiratory infection in cats. Even if successfully treated it can lead to

lifelong infections.
Unique dual-strain Calicivirus: This is a virus that affects the feline upper respiratory system and accounts for approximately 40
percent of all respiratory disease in cats. Even if successfully treated, cats infected can be chronic virus carriers with lifelong clinical
signs of sneezing and running eyes.
 Panleukopenia: This is often referred to as feline distemper. This disease is widespread and often fatal. Since most cats are likely to
be exposed to panleukopenia in their lifetime, vaccination again this illness is important.
Fel-O-Vax Lv-K (Feline Leukemia Felv): This deadly viral disease attacks the immune system and leaves the cat vulnerable to a host of
secondary infections. Because the transmission usually occurs through contact with other felines, those cats that live in multi-cat households or
are allowed to roam outside are particularly at risk.
Canine and Feline
Rabies: The rabies virus is always fatal and attacks through the nervous system. As rabies is a major health hazard, it is extremely important
your pet be vaccinated against it. Current Rabies vaccination is also required by law.
Intestinal Parasites: Some types of worms can kill young pet(s)--and in severe cases, adults. When left undetected or untreated, they cause
serious health issues for your pet, including severe secondary bacterial infections. Most parasites are easily detected, but some require
laboratory testing to confirm a diagnosis. Some intestinal parasites that infect animals will transmit to people as well. Small children and
immune compromised people are the most at risk for serious problems related to intestinal parasites. Worms can often be transmitted from one
species to another.
Heartworms: Heartworm disease is a serious and potentially fatal condition caused by parasitic worms living in the arteries of the lungs and
occasionally in the right side of the heart of dogs, cats, and other species of mammals. Dogs and cats of any age or breed are susceptible to
infection. Dogs or other animals harboring adult worms are the recognized reservoir of heartworms. The disease is spread by mosquito that
become infected with microfilaria while taking a blood meal from an infected dog.
