It's common for pet owners to be concerned about keeping track of their pet's vaccination records, especially after boarding. While some facilities may keep vaccination updates, it's often best to contact your vet directly for the most accurate information.
- Contact your veterinarian for the complete vaccination history.
- Check if the boarding facility maintains vaccination records.
- Keep personal records of your pet's vaccinations for future reference.
Most boarding facilities require proof of vaccinations before allowing entry, which means they usually do have records during your pet's stay. However, these records may not be kept long-term. It's a good practice to have a personal copy of your pet's vaccination history from your veterinarian. Your vet can provide you with the most detailed and accurate information regarding your pet's health status and vaccination schedule.
