Pet Travel Tips from Our Buckley Vets
APPOINTMENTPlanning to travel with your pets? Here’s what you should know.
When traveling with your pet, there may be specific animal health requirements for that destination. Factors to consider may include meeting timelines for obtaining health certificates, vaccinations, blood testing and/or administering deworming/flea treatments. Some health certificates may require an endorsement from the USDA which will require an appointment with the USDA Veterinary Services office in Tumwater, Washington.

Supporting Lifelong Health Through Prevention
Pet preventive care creates a layer of protection that can change alongside your dog or cat. Vaccinations, flea and tick prevention, heartworm protection, parasite screening, and other risk-based measures can help reduce exposure to specific preventable health concerns.
At Buckley Veterinary Hospital, preventive vet care is based on your pet’s lifestyle, age, environment, and exposure rather than a one-size-fits-all approach.
Schedule a preventive care visit with Buckley Veterinary Hospital to discuss which protections may be appropriate for your pet. Our veterinary team can help build a practical plan that reflects how your pet lives now and can be adjusted as their needs change.
