What should a pet health record include?
A useful pet health record lists who the pet is, every vaccine with its date, current medications as prescribed, allergies, past surgeries and conditions, the microchip number and how to reach the vet.
Kennels, groomers, pet sitters and emergency vets ask for these details first. Keeping them in one page saves time when your regular clinic is closed.
| Section | What to write |
|---|---|
| Pet | Name, species, breed or mix, sex and spay/neuter, birth date, weight with date, color, microchip number |
| Vaccines | Vaccine name, date given, next due date, clinic |
| Medications | Name, dose as prescribed, when to give it, start date |

How do I get my pet's vaccination records from my vet?
Ask your veterinary clinic for a copy of your pet's vaccine history; clinics keep these records and can usually print or email them.
If your pet was vaccinated at a shelter or a vaccine clinic, ask that place too. For rabies, keep the signed rabies certificate your vet gives you: it is the official document many places ask for.
Where should I keep it?
Keep one printed copy with your pet's things and one digital copy on your phone, and update both after every vet visit.
The wallet card holds the essentials (name, microchip, allergies, medications and vet phone) for travel and emergencies.
