Vaccinations and microchipping each play an important part in caring for your pet. Together, they help keep your companion safe and well, giving you peace of mind.
Vaccinations help protect your dog or cat from infectious diseases. Microchipping gives your pet a reliable way to be identified and reunited with you if they ever become lost.
At Logan Village Vets, we provide both vaccinations and microchipping for our community’s dogs and cats. When we discuss your pet’s needs, our advice is always practical and tailored to their age and unique circumstances.
Vaccination usually starts when your pet is young, but it remains important throughout their life, not just in the early months.
Puppies and kittens begin with a series of vaccinations in their first months. As they grow, dogs and cats continue with regular adult vaccinations to help keep them protected.
Our current dog vaccination program includes C3 and C5 vaccines. For cats, the clinic uses F3 vaccination.
What matters most is knowing where your pet is up to with their vaccinations. If you have records from another clinic, please bring them along so we can understand their history and plan the next steps together.
For younger pets, our puppy and kitten vaccination guide covers early vaccination in more detail.
Vaccination is a key part of preventative care. The goal is to protect your pet before they come into contact with diseases these vaccines are designed to help prevent.
C5 vaccination for dogs covers canine parvovirus, distemper, hepatitis and components associated with kennel cough. F3 vaccination covers feline panleukopenia, calicivirus and feline herpesvirus.
Vaccination visits are also a good opportunity to check in on your pet’s overall health and keep track of their ongoing needs.
If you are unsure what your dog or cat has already received, just let us know what you can and bring any records you have.
Collars and tags are helpful, but they can come off. A microchip gives your pet a permanent way to be identified if they ever become lost.
We offer microchipping as its own service at Logan Village Vets. It can also be done while your pet is already at the clinic for surgery.
This can be helpful for pets already coming in for a procedure such as desexing. We have separate information available about pet desexing if you would like to know more.
Having a microchip is only part of the job. It is important to keep the contact information linked to your pet’s microchip up to date.
Moving house or changing your phone number can leave outdated information on your pet’s identification. Checking those details is a simple step that is easy to overlook.
If you are unsure whether your pet has already been microchipped, just mention it when you arrange their visit.
You do not always need separate appointments for vaccination and microchipping.
We can provide vaccinations and microchipping together for dogs when suitable. Microchipping can also be done separately or during surgery.
For a new puppy or an adult dog whose history needs updating, this can make it easier to take care of both at once.
The right approach always depends on your individual pet and the reason for their visit.
It can be surprisingly easy to lose track of vaccination records, microchip details and due dates.
Our approach is straightforward. We look at what your pet has already had, what is relevant now, and what still needs attention.
That is practical preventative care. You will leave knowing what has been done and what comes next.
Your pet’s needs change as they move through life. A young puppy needs different care than an adult dog, and older cats often benefit from a closer look as small changes start to show.
We’re here for dogs and cats at every stage, from prevention and routine health checks to diagnostics, surgery, and gentle support in later years.
Seeing your pet regularly helps us learn what’s normal for them and spot changes early, so we can step in when it matters.
Everyday care covers consultations, health checks, vaccinations, desexing, dental care, support for senior pets, microchipping, weight checks, and advice on nutrition.
These visits are also a good time to talk about smaller concerns, like changes in appetite, movement, behaviour, or anything else you’ve noticed at home.
Sometimes, a physical exam isn’t quite enough to get the answers we need.
We offer diagnostic imaging, in-house pathology, orthopaedic surgery, and care for more complex health concerns.
What happens next depends on your pet, what we find, and the kind of care they need.
Puppies learn so much in their first months, and it’s a key time for building good habits and confidence.
Our puppy preschool gives young dogs and their families a gentle start, with early learning in a supportive setting. It’s a great way to build helpful habits right from the beginning.
We know that unexpected vet visits can put pressure on the family budget.
We can help with pet insurance claims and offer payment options that may make things easier for eligible clients. What’s available will depend on your insurer or payment provider.
I took my beautiful boy to get a concern I had checked. This was our first visit. We were greeted by friendly and caring staff. We felt in very good hands. I would highly recommend this practice if you need a vet.
This vet is the best I have been too and the most caring to an animal I have seen. There loyal and very friendly. Highly recommend for ur fur baby.
Dr Nigel is so nice he’s very caring and compassionate thorough in his work feel really comfortable bringing my boy Shnickles to c him staff are absolutely amazing very friendly and helpful wouldn’t go anywhere else
Couldn’t recommend this vet enough! It is a bit of a drive for me and my partner but went on a recommendation from my sister. Unfortunately, one of my cats had to have her leg amputated after she broke her leg and we were taken care of so well! The vets loved my baby and treated her with so much kindness and went above and beyond to keep any worries I had at bay. You can tell this vet genuinely cares about their patients and will go above and beyond to take care of you.
Have had great service and attention in particular from Vicky every time I have had to visit the clinic. Happy to recommend
Very professional in looking after my dog along with reasonable pricing excellent for great advice as usual.
Dr Richard was fantastic with my dog, who can be quite nervous at the vet. Even when things got a bit stressful, he stayed calm, kind, and professional the whole time. Really appreciated how understanding and gentle he was – you can tell he genuinely cares about animals. Highly recommend.
I took my little guy here after having other vets dismiss my concerns about his symptoms. I was blown away by the personable, kind, informative care we received. The reception staff are also so lovely. I’ve never seen my little guy so confident at the vet due to the doctor’s impeccable bedside manner. He’s been started on new meds and I’ve never seen my little guy so happy. The prices are incredibly reasonable as well.
Puppies require a series of vaccinations during their first months before moving to an adult vaccination program. Logan Village Vets currently uses C3 and C5 vaccines as part of dog vaccination care.
We always consider your puppy’s previous vaccination history when working out what is needed next.
The clinic currently uses F3 vaccination for kittens and adult cats. F3 provides protection against feline panleukopenia and feline calicivirus. Kittens start with a series of vaccinations and then continue with regular vaccinations as adults.
Yes. The clinic currently provides dog vaccination and microchipping together when appropriate.
This can be helpful when a puppy or dog needs both services, making the process simpler for you and your pet.
Vaccination is not limited to puppies and kittens. The current clinic vaccination program includes ongoing vaccination for adult dogs and cats. Your pet’s vaccination history and individual circumstances help us decide what to discuss at their next visit.
Yes. Microchipping can be performed while a pet is already at the clinic for a surgical procedure.
The current clinic also lists microchipping during surgery as an available service.
Yes. Microchipping is also available as a standalone service, so your pet does not need to undergo surgery.
We can arrange microchipping separately whenever permanent identification is needed.
Please bring any vaccination records you have. They help us understand what your pet has already received and clarify the vaccination discussion.
If records are incomplete, just let us know what you can about your pet’s vaccination history.
A microchip is intended to provide permanent identification if your pet becomes lost. Therefore, the contact information associated with that identification needs to remain up to date.
Changes such as a new address or phone number are important to update.
