**Importance of vaccination**
1.Pets like cats and dogs are needed to be vaccinated as early as age of 7 weeks
.
2.Main reason of vaccination is the low immunity due to insufficient amount of immunoglobulin received to puppy and early separation from mother.
3.Puppy has tendency to lick and smell every object (like doormats, shoes, soil etc.) due to curiosity and they may catch lot of infections from this habit. This habit is highly ignored by new pet parents.
4.Taking puppy outside home without vaccination will increase the chances of viral infections like Distemper, Parvo and Corona viral gastroenteritis.
5.Parvo and Corona viral gastroenteritis is highly fatal and leading cause of death in puppies.
6. These diseases are highly transmittable so your pet might get such disease from other infected animals.
7. Normal symptoms includes fever, anorexia, vomiting, bloodly diarrhoea with mucus, dehydration, lethargy, etc.
8.Treatment cost of viral gastroenteritis is around 10k - 20k depending upon severity of infection, which also cannot assure guaranteed recovery.
9. Canine distemper is highly contagious viral disease of puppies with low immunity, which causes severe neurological symptoms like seizures and can lead to paralysis, high temperature, anorexia for which no assured treatment is available.
10. To prevent all these viral infections different types of vaccinations are available. We highly recommend to start vaccination of your pet under guidance registered veterinarian practitioner at age of 7weeks.
11.A proper course of vaccination is also beneficial to register your pet with local authorities and can be used during transportation by air or railways.
