Usually getting vaccinations done at the vets office is more money than say a vaccination clinic, or doing them yourselves.
However keep in mind, part of what you are paying extra for is:
1) An examination of your pet by an experienced pet health professional to ensure that your pet is healthy and stays that way. Sometimes during a routine exam problems can be caught early that could cause your pet to be unwell or even die if not treated soon.
2) Vaccines from the vet are guaranteed (sp?) to be bought from authentic sources and are stored properly. Most manufacturers are more likely to back up their product or pay for treatments if vaccines are given by a licensed vet.
3) If by some chance your pet has a severe reaction to the vaccine they are already in a place that treatment can take place. Reactions like this are very rare fortunately but time does matter with them.
4) In many states Rabies vaccination can only be given by a licensed vet to be considered valid.
Those are just a few reasons why it costs more for the same vaccination from the vet as a vaccination clinic.
