State and local ordinances require that all dogs and cats be vaccinated for rabies every year. The shots help protect your pet and your family from rabies, a deadly viral disease.
At the Saturday clinics, rabies vaccinations are $8.00 for both dogs and cats. County law also requires that all dogs be licensed, and some municipalities require licenses for cats. License tags will be available for an additional cost, depending on area of residence. NO CHECKS WILL BE ACCEPTED. ALL PAYMENTS MUST BE MADE IN CASH.
