Vaccines and Your Puppy

We believe in creating a personalized vaccine schedule that is tailored for your puppy’s needs to maximize the protection against any diseases he or she is likely to be exposed to. There are many diseases that are preventable through the judicious use of vaccines, so it is important to create an individualized protocol early in life to protect both your puppy and your family.

Microchipping

Much like vaccinations, microchips can help keep your puppy safe. If your pet should ever become lost, their unique microchip identifier will help bring them home safely. Click to learn more about microchipping your pet.

Your Puppy’s First Visit

In preparation for your puppy’s first visit with us, it is helpful to bring the health information provided to you by the seller or shelter. This information should include a previous history of vaccines and deworming. We also ask that you bring a fresh stool sample, and bring your puppy on a leash or in a secure carrier.

To schedule an appointment for your puppy’s wellness exam, please call us at (615) 352-4370.

Three times I have had to use the vets ER. It’s reassuring that the hospital is open 24/7. Because we use Quakertown vets for regular care, vaccines and well checkups we are not charged the ER fees. My older lab was recently found to have heart failure. Due to the vet finding it when he was there for another reason, led to Alex getting early treatment. They have every specialist one could need. Frosty our German shepherd puppy was found to have a GI infection and treated. I can always get an appointment fairly quickly. The staff are great, understanding, very competent and knowledgeable. They take the time to care for my boys and answer my questions so I can make an educated informed decision caring for them.

my best friend and I came to Quakertown Vet Clinic from 1.5hrs away for an emergency with her bearded dragon. after calling place after place with dead ends, Quakertown was the only one willing to take her and treat her. from the moment of speaking on the phone to leaving at the end of the night, every staff member was so professional, kind, and compassionate. Dr. Heidi Free treated Beardy and communicated with us clearly about everything that could be going on. She is truly one of the most knowledgeable and informative veterinarians I have ever met, and we are so thankful she was able to help in such a stressful situation. there are not enough kind words for Quakertown Vet!
