Miami-Dade County residents can purchase low-cost pet care packages which can protect dogs and cats from many common, serious and even fatal diseases. Pet Care Packages are available for both dogs and cats as well as low income pet owners.
For dogs, the packages contain the legally required rabies vaccine, along with the combination vaccine DHPP which provides protection against Distemper, Hepatitis, Parvovirus and Parainfluenza, as well as the Bordetella vaccine which prevents kennel cough.
For cats, the packages also include the legally required rabies vaccine along with FRCPC. Those letters stand for Feline Rhinotracheitis, Calicivirus, Panleukopenia and Chlamydophila.
No appointment needed for the vaccinations. However, if you are choosing the Option 3, Special Service Package, you will need to schedule an appointment for the spay/neuter surgery.
