Vaccines Save Lives
Vaccinating your pet is absolutely essential, especially in the community we call home. Durham is a beautiful place to spend time with your furry companion in the great outdoors…which is where scary diseases live.
Protection Against Harmful Diseases
Ensuring your pet is up to date on life-saving vaccinations is paramount. Per North Carolina law, the rabies vaccination is required for all dogs and cats. Many other vaccines will protect your pet from severe disease or even death.
Your Fear Free vet team will thoroughly review the benefits of each vaccine and the best vaccination plan for your unique pet. Vaccines save lives, giving you many happy years with your pet.
Our wellness plans cover a majority of Eno services, including check-ups, core vaccines, and annual lab work. Save money and provide the best care for your fur baby.
Dog Vaccine Information
Core vaccines are essential for all pups regardless of breed, lifestyle, or environment. Core vaccines for dogs include…
- Canine rabies
- Canine distemper/parvovirus
- Bordetella
Non-core pet vaccines are based on your pet’s activities, lifestyle, and environmental needs. Non-core vaccines for dogs include…
- Influenza (flu)
- Leptospirosis
- Lyme disease
Canine influenza is highly contagious and tricky to treat, making the influenza vaccine imperative for pups who spend time with other pups, especially boarding or in doggy day care. Lepto and lyme disease are highly contagious and tied to local exposure to standing water, dog parks, and wooded or grassy areas where ticks thrive.

Do You Need a Day Admission?
Day admissions are convenient for busy pet parents and allow us the flexibility to see as many pets as possible.
We book day admissions just like regular visits. There is no fee or extra charge. You will have an exact appointment time in the morning, such as 8:10, and admitting your pet takes about 10 minutes.
Admitted pets are never left lonely in a cage. We check on them often and offer walks and attention! Pets here for the day relax in crates right inside our treatment area, in full view of our team. Get all the details on day admissions!
