The primary purpose of a vaccine is to prepare your pet's immune system to fight against diseases. A vaccination allows your pet's immune system to respond so it will be able to ward off future illnesses.

What Is The Relationship Between Vaccines and My Pet's Health?

Vaccinated pets are better protected from dangerous diseases that can be life-threatening. Pets should start a series of vaccinations early in life, then receive boosters throughout their lifetime to maintain the effectiveness.

What Are Core and Non-Core Vaccines?

Core vaccines are agreed upon by veterinarians to be essential as they protect against severe diseases that can affect pets and humans. Non-core vaccines depend primarily on your pet's lifestyle or pre-existing health conditions.

How Do I Know When My Pet Should Get Vaccinated?

Our veterinarian will establish the best vaccination schedule needed for your pet. There isn't a 'one size fits all' approach for your pet's vaccination schedule. Our team will establish a schedule that is appropriate for the type of breed and your pet's lifestyle.

Is There a Risk for My Pet with Receiving a Vaccine?

The stimulation of your pet's immune system occurs when it receives a vaccination. As a result, there may be a slight fever or redness where the injection was given. In rare instances, pets can experience additional symptoms, but they are overall a very safe part of preventative medicine.

Microchipping

Central Valley Veterinary Hospital Services

Keep your pet safe with Microchipping. No surgery or anesthesia is required—a microchip can be implanted during a routine veterinary office visit.

At Central Valley Vet Hospital, we prioritize the safety and well-being of your beloved pets. One of the most effective ways to ensure their protection is through microchipping. Microchipping is a simple and safe procedure that can be done during a routine veterinary office visit, providing a permanent identification solution for your pet.

What is Microchipping?

Microchipping involves the implantation of a tiny microchip, about the size of a grain of rice, underneath your pet's skin, typically between the shoulder blades. Each microchip contains a unique identification number that is registered in a national pet recovery database.

Lifetime Safety and Security

Permanent Identification

Unlike collars or tags that can be lost or removed, a microchip provides a permanent form of identification for your pet. The unique ID is associated with your contact information in a national database.

Safe and Non-Invasive

The procedure does not require surgery or anesthesia. It can be performed quickly and easily during a routine office visit, similar to a vaccination.

Increased Chances of Reunion

Shelters and veterinary clinics have scanners that can detect the microchip, significantly increasing the chances of being reunited with a missing pet.

International Travel

Many countries require pets to be microchipped for identification purposes. Ensuring your pet is chipped helps streamline the international travel process.

The Microchipping Procedure

The microchipping procedure is quick and virtually painless for your pet. It can be done during a routine veterinary office visit, such as a wellness exam or vaccination appointment.

The microchip is implanted under the skin using a sterile needle, typically between the shoulder blades. Once implanted, the microchip becomes a permanent identification for your pet.

Critical Steps

01
Implantation: Quick and non-invasive procedure during your visit.
02
Registration: We'll help you link the unique ID to your contact info in a national database.
03
Maintenance: Keep your contact information current to ensure swift reunion if found.

Protect Your Pet Today

At Central Valley Vet Hospital, we understand the importance of microchipping in keeping your pet safe. Our team is experienced in microchip implantation and will guide you through the process.

Central Valley Veterinary office was caring, professional, and genuinely concerned about my dog's well-being. The doctor removed some foxtails from his eyelid, kept him comfortable, and clearly explained the treatment. The entire staff was friendly, attentive, and welcoming from the moment we arrived. They took the time to answer my questions, kept me informed throughout the visits, and made sure both my dog and I felt comfortable and cared for. Their kindness and professionalism truly stood out. Thanks to their excellent care, my dog recovered well. I highly recommend this veterinary office for their compassion, professionalism, dedicated staff, and commitment to providing outstanding care.

Price assessment: Reasonable price

Yesterday evening we came here as an emergency when our almost 2 years old micro bully, Macho who was having an anxiety/panic attack on our way home. It was his 1st time and could have been his last if it wasn't for the amazing souls at Central Valley. All staff is professional, friendly and they saved our baby boy's life with responding in a timely manner. His panic attack turned into a heat stroke symptoms and his tongue was purple when they checked him. We love him so much and would've been completely devastated to lose him. He is back to his normal self less than 24 hours later. Highly recommend this place. We can't thank them enough for saving his life. Thank you!! God Bless You all and your Business.

They tried their absolute best to save my heart cat Zeke, unfortunately I had to let him go and they gave me a quiet and safe space to say my goodbyes as we helped him leave this world. They were so compassionate with his care and my emotional state of loss and grief. It took me a couple years to heal from the loss but I have brought my new cats in and know they will recieve the best treatment with knowledgeable and supportive staff. All of the doctors and vet techs here treat the customers' pets like their own. Very professional and affordable and work great with pet insurance to ease the claim process. My trio will be here and have the best care for the rest of their spoiled lives.

Was referred to this place in an emergency they where able to to treat the situation with urgency very professional, office staff are absolutely fantastic, even sat there in waiting room sharing there personal stories from experience with animals with me…. Gave me options for treatment whole 9 yards to get my dogs back to playing. Have been to many vets for my rescue animals and by far this place is worth the 40 min drive. Prices still better than most vets I've ever been to what would have been a 1200$ visit recently was only 800$ here. 100% recommend Central Valley vet for any vet needs or questions, hard to find honest people who take pride in there work.

Everyone is awesome. Alyssa Liz at the front desk. Sweet Nice and affectionate staff. Andy and Mani the technicians were So helpful. Dr. Christie is so kind. I live in Fremont, but drove all the way to Manteca and it was worth the drive because the same treatment that I was getting for $3000 in the bay area is only $1000 here. Highly recommend this place

Hello, my name is Joyce Inglemon and my German Shepard Santana are clients of Central Valley Vet Hospital. Ahmed and Drew saved the life of my best friend. I had previously spent $675.00 on my guy with absolutely no positive results, he went in with bad ear problems and a snout problem and left with the same problem. I brought it to the attention of the owner and he got the very best on my K9, which was Ahmed and Drew, nothing left to say but excellent diagnosis, results positive and me and Santana are very happy campers. Thank you so very much. PS please excuse me if I misspelled your names, you know who you are and I definitely do.

Smokey was there this past weekend for his annual follow up & and allergy shot. The staff was all so very nice. Both the vet assistant & the vet took their time during our visit. They made sure to answer all our questions and concerns regarding his allergies. Glad we switched over to them last year.
