Mohnacky Animal Hospitals are dedicated to providing the highest quality of care for your pet. Mohnacky Animal Hospitals has pioneered and offered laccinations based on lifestyle with a routine “Health and Vaccine Evaluation” (HVE). Our thorough physical exam optimizes your pet’s health with our doctor’s recommendations of specific breed risk testing and appropriate “Core Vaccines” based upon your pet’s health, age, and life style. Mohnacky Animal Hospitals “Core Vaccines” are those that are recommended by the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) and the American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA).
Keeping your pet properly immunized against infectious disease is one of the most important things you can do to insure good health. Whether your pet is a couch potato or a social butterfly we can help you determine the best vaccination choice. Our thorough physical exam ensures that your pet is healthy and you and your veterinarian will decide which vaccines are necessary based on your pet’s lifestyle.
The Core Vaccines for Canines are: Distemper, Hepatitis, Parvo, Parainfluenza, Corona, Bordetella and Rabies.
The Core Vaccines for Felines are: Rhinotracheitis, Calici, Panleukopenia, Chlamydia, and Rabies.
The use of Non-Core vaccines are only used when the doctor and client determine there may be an added benefit in maintaining your pet’s health. These Non-Core vaccines are not part of our HVE and are invoiced separately from our “Health and Vaccine Evaluation”. (Non-Core vaccines include Lyme, FeLV Leukemia, etc.)
Before we begin a vaccination or health care regimen for your pet, we consult with you to develop a specific plan of action tailored to meet your pet’s needs, based upon your lifestyle. We enjoy having you as an active participant in planning what is best for your pet’s health.
