The new puppy at your clinic - building a solid foundation
(incl. TVA)
Many would agree that puppy vaccinations are a fun part of our job as veterinarians. However, as with any patient, we have a responsibility to their health and welfare, both in the short and long term. Good veterinary advice given early in an animal's development can prevent or reduce the risk of significant health and quality of life issues. Also, when potential problems are noticed with a puppy's behaviour, the veterinarian has the opportunity to get those animals the help they need in a timely manner. The puppy's first veterinary visit gives you, as the veterinarian, the opportunity to create a first veterinary experience that sets the stage for the puppy's happy and healthy relationship with the clinic and with you. Veterinarians seeing a pup for the first time play an influential role in the puppy developing into a healthy adult dog.
