Vaccination Guidelines - Welcome to USAR Veterinary Group

Vaccination Guidelines 2006 Since 2003, the american animal hospital association ( aaha ) Canine Vaccine Task Force has made recommendations regarding Vaccination protocols specifically for canines. The latest set of recommendations was published in 2006, and is summarized in the table on page 2. These vaccines have been divided into 3 categories: core vaccines are recommended for all dogs, non-core are optional and based on a dog s lifestyle and risk/benefit ratio and should be discussed with your local veterinarian, and not recommended which may not provide adequate immunity or are associated with complications. The change from the standard yearly vaccinations to every 3 years for most of them is due to advances in vaccine products and extended duration of immunity (DOI). Also there have been no increases in infectious diseases in adequately immunized dogs since that time. Understand that these are Guidelines based upon expert opinions, personal experiences, published and unpublished scientific data.
