At Morriston Veterinary Services we follow the recommendations of the American Animal Hospital Association, the American Association of Feline Practicioners and World Small Animal Veterinary Association and of course applicable State & Local laws when we develop a vaccine schedule for our companion animal patients. The most current guidelines have just been released in 2020 and we would like to share our vaccine policy with those in mind.
