Pet Wellness / Puppy / Kitten Exams
Pet Wellness Programs
Rose-Rich Veterinary Clinic offers a Healthy Pet Wellness Program for pets who are under ten years of age. Pets age much faster than humans and can begin developing signs of disease that (with early detection) can be managed with proper nutrition and, in some cases, medication.
Our Healthy Pet Wellness Program recommends that pets under ten years receive the following:
- Complete Physical Exam - Yearly
- Annual Vaccinations (Canine) - Yearly
- Annual Vaccinations (Feline) - Yearly
- Fecal Test for Internal Parasites - Yearly
- Heartworm Test - Yearly
Over the age of ten, pets tend to develop more extensive health problems. For early detection and treatment, we recommend the following procedures.
Our Senior Advanced Wellness Program recommends that pets over ten years receive the following:
- Complete Physical Exam - Yearly
- Annual Vaccinations (Canine) - Yearly
- Annual Vaccinations (Feline) - Yearly

- Wellness Urinalysis – Every other year
Puppy Vaccination Schedule
We give puppies their first set of vaccinations at six to eight weeks of age. Additional vaccinations are given every three to four weeks until the puppy is 16 weeks old. We then vaccinate yearly to maintain your pet’s immunity.
Vaccinations are given to prevent - not cure - disease. When your dog is injected with a vaccine, the animal’s immune system produces antibodies that work against the viruses or bacteria that cause the disease. Later, if your pet is exposed to that disease, these antibodies will help destroy those viruses or bacteria.
Kitten Vaccination Schedule
We give kittens their first set of vaccinations at eight weeks of age. Additional vaccinations are given every three to four weeks until the kitten is 16 weeks old. We then vaccinate yearly to maintain your pet’s immunity.
Vaccinations are given to prevent - not cure - disease. When your cat is injected with a vaccine, the animal’s immune system produces antibodies that work against the viruses or bacteria that cause the disease. Later, if your pet is exposed to that disease, these antibodies will help destroy those viruses or bacteria.
