Cost
FREE rabies shot | Microchip $10How
No appointment is needed to come to a rabies clinic. Just come on the Second Saturday of the month between 8:00 am - 10:45 am. In order to serve the pet owners in a timely and uninterrupted manner, owners must be in line by 10:45 am. This is to prevent longer wait times when we open at 11 am for regular business.
- Owners that come for the free rabies shots will receive a number so you can rest in your car. The cut-off time is promptly at 10:45 am. Everyone who received a number before then will be served. Anyone that comes after 10:45 am will be referred to the next clinic date.
- The monthly spay/neuter clinics held at the shelter are held on the same day BY APPOINTMENT ONLY. If your pet needs spay or neuter services please click here to fill out an application. ALL surgery appointments on the day of the clinic have first priority when the clinic starts.
