Vaccination of dogs: A vital gesture for everyone’s health

Dog vaccination is a crucial aspect of promoting One Health, a concept that highlights the interdependence of human, animal and environmental health. Dogs can carry diseases that can be transmitted to humans, such as rabies, leptospirosis and toxocariasis. That is why it is essential to vaccinate them to protect not only their health, but also that of their owners and the community.

“We vaccinated our dog, Max, a few months ago,” says Virginie, owner of a 3-year-old dog. “We wanted to make sure that our dog was protected against diseases and that we were protected as well. We are very happy with the vaccination and we recommend it to all dog owners.” Jean, owner of a 5-year-old dog, adds: “Vaccinating our dog, Luna, was a very important decision for us. We have a family with children and we wanted to make sure that our dog could not transmit diseases to our children. Vaccination was a very simple and quick thing to do, and we are very happy that we did it.”

Health authorities and veterinarians are calling on all dog owners to vaccinate their pets to protect their health and that of the community. Vaccinating dogs is a vital step for the health of all. “We encourage all dog owners to take this simple and important step to protect their dog and their family.”

Dog vaccination is a crucial aspect of public health and animal health protection. Dogs can carry diseases that can be transmitted to humans, such as rabies, leptospirosis and toxocariasis. This is why it is essential to vaccinate them to protect not only their health, but also that of their owners and the community.

Dogs that are not vaccinated are more likely to contract serious diseases and pass them on to their owners and other animals. Rabies, for example, is a deadly disease that can be transmitted through the saliva of an infected dog. Leptospirosis, on the other hand, can cause serious kidney and liver problems in humans.

It is recommended to vaccinate your dog from 6 to 8 weeks of age, and to renew the vaccinations every year. It is also important to follow your veterinarian’s advice to determine the necessary vaccinations for your dog based on its age, health and lifestyle.
