to Lonsdale Pet Hospital, your dedicated partner in ensuring the health and longevity of your beloved pets. With a legacy of providing exceptional veterinary care to the North Vancouver community, we understand vaccinations’ vital role in safeguarding your furry family. Our Pet Vaccinations and Immunization service is designed to offer comprehensive protection against a range of preventable diseases, ensuring a long and happy life for your pets.
Vaccinations are a cornerstone of preventive veterinary care. They stimulate the immune system to recognize and defend against specific diseases. By administering vaccines, we provide your pet with the necessary tools to fight off potentially deadly infections. Vaccinations not only protect individual pets but also contribute to the overall health of the pet community.
Our experienced team will provide your pet with personalized care tailored to their needs based on age, lifestyle, and medical history. We use only high-quality vaccines approved by the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) to ensure maximum effectiveness against harmful pathogens like rabies or canine distemper virus (CDV).
We also follow all recommended guidelines set forth by the AVMA regarding vaccine schedules for each animal we treat to ensure optimal protection against infectious diseases without overloading your pet’s immune system with unnecessary doses or boosters.
In addition to providing routine vaccinations as needed throughout your pet’s life span, our clinic also offers specialty vaccination protocols such as those required for international travel or boarding facilities, which may require additional shots due to specific requirements mandated by local laws governing these activities.
Our staff knows state regulations concerning rabies vaccines and any other specialized protocols you may need, depending on where you live. We understand how important it is to keep up-to-date records regarding vaccinating pets so they remain safe while traveling abroad, visiting kennels, participating in shows etc.
We believe prevention is critical when protecting your beloved companion from harm caused by infectious disease; this is why we strive to give them the best chance to survive whatever life throws their way through a comprehensive vaccination program designed to meet the individual needs of every patient who walks through the door!
What sets us apart is our expertise and our genuine love for animals. We prioritize the comfort and well-being of your pets, ensuring that every vaccination experience is as stress-free as possible. Our team is dedicated to providing the best possible care, taking the time to address any questions or concerns you may have about your pet’s vaccinations.
At Lonsdale Pet Hospital, we understand that every pet is unique. We offer personalized vaccination protocols tailored to your pet’s needs. Our experienced veterinarians will assess your pet’s age, lifestyle, medical history, and exposure risks to formulate a vaccination plan that maximizes protection while minimizing unnecessary vaccinations.
We provide core and non-core vaccinations, ensuring a comprehensive approach to your pet’s health. Core vaccines are essential for all pets and protect against common, potentially severe diseases. Non-core vaccines are recommended based on lifestyle, travel, and local disease prevalence.

From routine vaccinations and preventative care to specialized surgical procedures and dental treatments, our team has the expertise and technology to provide the highest standard of care for pets of all shapes and sizes.
