What this sheet is for

Keep a dog's whole vaccination history on one page you can hand to a kennel, a groomer or a new vet. It carries the microchip and insurance details you are always asked for at the same moment.

Who it is for

Dog owners, and anyone who boards, walks or minds somebody else's dog.

How to use it

  1. Copy each line from the certificate your vet gave you, including the batch or lot number — that is the part nobody writes down and vets sometimes need.
  2. Fill in the microchip number and check the database still has your current phone number.
  3. Add the insurance policy number and renewal date while you have the papers out.
  4. Take a photograph of the finished sheet, and keep the original with the certificates.

What is on the sheet

The layout is fixed at a size that fits both A4 and US Letter, so the A4 and Letter files are visually identical and print at full size on either. Rows are set at a height that an adult can actually write a date and a few words into with a pen — most printable tables are built in a word processor and never tested with one.

Questions

What do kennels and day care usually ask to see?

It differs between facilities and between countries, so ask the place you are booking and write their answer in the boarding section at the bottom. What they generally want is a dated record of what was given and when the next one falls due, which is what the table on this sheet holds.

Does this replace the certificate from my vet?

No. The certificate is the document with the practice's stamp on it, and you should keep it. This is the copy you can write on, take with you and hand over without risking the original.

Why is there no schedule printed on the sheet?

Because there is no single correct one. What a dog is given, and how often, depends on the dog, on where you live and on what your vet has seen locally. A printed schedule would go out of date and could be wrong for your animal, so the sheet stays blank and your vet fills the gaps.

Keep the first year of a puppy's treatments in one place, with the dates your vet gave you written down before you forget them. The weight at each treatment is worth recording too, because a puppy's changes week to week and nobody remembers it afterwards.
