Why isn vaccine protection lifelong?
Contrary to the recent reports, vaccine protection is not lifelong. The frequency of booster vaccinations depends on the disease in question and on the vaccine being used by your pet. For example, the vaccines that Highcliff Veterinary practice uses can now provide three years protection against some diseases e.g. parvovirus, but for others, like leptospirosis, a yearly vaccination is still crucial. You need to bring your pet to the vets every year, not only to boost protection against diseases like leptospirosis, but also to carry out a general health check.
