Protection & Prevention
Our Milton veterinarians focus on preventive care to keep common diseases and disorders from developing in our patients.
Vaccinations and parasite prevention are the cornerstone of your cat or dog's annual preventive care, combined with regular health checkups. These services are designed to preserve your pet's good health and eliminate the need for treatment.
Preventive care gives your companion their best shot at a long, healthy life. Our team will assess your furry friend's risk factors and lifestyle, then work with you to create a custom preventive care plan to meet your furry companion's unique needs.
Cat & Dog Vaccination Schedule
Making sure your pet's vaccinations are current is vital when it comes to protecting your pet against a range of contagious and often deadly, diseases.
Each dog and cat that visits Animal Hospital of Milton will receive an individualized vaccine plan designed to meet their needs and lifestyle. This personalized approach ensures that your canine or feline companions receive the protection they need to lead healthy and fulfilling lives.
Some of the common vaccinations we use for your pets are listed below:

- Panleukopenia
- Feline Leukemia
- Rabies
Canine Vaccinations
- DHPP (Distemper, Hepatitis, Parainfluenza, Parvovirus)

Spaying & Neutering
Having your furry friend spayed or neutered not only helps prevent the birth of unwanted litters, but these common veterinary surgeries can also help protect your dog or cat against some serious forms of cancer. They may also prevent unwanted behaviours such as howling, scooting, roaming, and aggression.
These common surgical procedures are performed under general anesthesia at our Milton clinic.
Parasite Prevention
Parasites pose a serious health threat to people and pets. Left untreated, parasites can threaten the life of your cat or dog, and in some cases can be transmitted to people or other pets living in your household.
Our parasite prevention products can help protect your dog or cat from common parasites.
Microchipping
At Animal Hospital of Milton, we can place a tiny microchip under your cat or dog's skin as a permanent form of pet identification.
Pets that are microchipped have a better chance of being reunited with their owners if they become lost.
