BOARDING POLICIES
Vaccines Requirements
For the health and safety of our boarders, pets entering Megan’s Northgate Animal Boarding for any of our services must be current in the following vaccinations:
Dogs
- Annual Distemper/Parvo vaccine
- Rabies if over 4 months of age
- Annual Bordetella vaccine
Cats
- Annual FVRCP or Annual FeLV
- Rabies (one or three year protocol)
The Bordetella vaccine helps defend against Canine Infectious Respiratory Disease (CIRD) or “kennel cough”
The DHPP vaccine helps prevent canine distemper, infectious hepatitis,parainfluenza, and parvovirus
The FVRCP vaccination helps prevent rhinotracheitis, calicivirus and panleukopenia
The FeLV vaccination helps prevent feline Leukemia
Keep in mind…
Like a child at daycare, your pet is at a higher risk of exposure to various illnesses while boarding, even with proper vaccination. Vaccines aren’t 100% effective, but they do decrease the symptoms and can lessen the severity if your pet does contract an illness while at Megan’s Kennels. For any additional concerns, don’t hesitate to consult with our veterinarian.
Please have your vet’s office call or email us confirmation or bring photocopies upon Check-In.
