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.

Quakertown Vet is an outstanding place.All the staff and doctors hold a very special place in my heart,I've been dealing with them for over 20 yrs..Their amazing service can't compare to any other,and their always there to help you through any situation which is peace of mind for me. The front desk is wonderful and always willing to help.Dr.Joseph Consigli is an amazing, caring,and extremely knowledgeable Vet,I valve his opinion and feel confident in all his decisions that he makes for my Boston Terrier (Brooklyn Fern).Had an appointment yesterday and Dr.Consigli and his assistant Michelle made it a pleasant one as always.He has taken care of my 3 dachshunds in the past over the years with his love and compassion and I wouldn't have wanted it any other way.There has been times that other doctors have seen my pets for emergencies or illness at this practice and I thank them as well for their service.A wonderful and caring facility.
My experience at Quakertown VC has always been exceptional. the doctors are all well educated, never seem tired, but rather focused on my pets. Its a top notch facility where i can always expect great care.
I honestly don't know how to put into words how grateful I am to the entire team at Quakertown Veterinary Clinic.After being turned away by two emergency veterinary hospitals while my 15-year-old dog, Cooper, was experiencing a prolonged seizure, I was completely heartbroken, terrified, and desperate to find someone who would help him.When I called Quakertown, the compassion I received was something I will never forget. They didn't make me feel like a number or tell me there was nowhere to go. They got Cooper in immediately and treated him with such kindness and understanding during an absolutely devastating moment.Sadly, after everything Cooper had been through, we had to make the heartbreaking decision to say goodbye to him. The staff at Quakertown made one of the worst moments of our lives as peaceful and compassionate as they possibly could. They gave us time with him, treated him with dignity and love, and showed so much compassion.What touched me especially were the thoughtful momentos they prepared for us to take home after Cooper passed. Those little gestures meant more than they probably realize. Having his paw print and those special keepsakes gave us something tangible to hold onto when we had just lost a beloved member of our family.Cooper was with us for 15 years. He wasn't "just a dog,” he was our family, and saying goodbye to him was absolutely heartbreaking. The kindness and compassion we received at Quakertown will stay with us forever.To everyone at Quakertown Veterinary Clinic: thank you for taking care of Cooper when we needed someone the most. Thank you for seeing his value, for treating him with dignity, and for treating our family with compassion when we were at our most vulnerable.We will never forget what you did for us and for Cooper. ❤️
Excellent care for all your animals. Veteran discount. Someone is always there 24 hours a day. I have been using Quakertown Veterinary Clinic for many years. I have confidence that their Vets will make the right decisions for my animals.
