BROWARD COUNTY, FL - The Animal Care and Adoption Division will host a neighborhood Rabies Clinic on Saturday, November 5th, from 9AM to 2PM at Mary Saunders Park, 4750 SW 21st Street, in West Park.
Pet owners will be able to have their dog or cat vaccinated against rabies and receive a Broward County Rabies Registration License tag.
Cost for a one-year rabies vaccination and Broward County Rabies Registration License tag will be:
- $25 for dogs and cats that are spayed/neutered (sterilized)
- $35 for pets that are not spayed/neutered (not sterilized)
Dog and cat ID microchips, with free registration, will also be available for $15. Microchips can be scanned by a veterinarian or animal shelter if your pet gets lost so they can be returned to you.
Debit/credit cards will be the only form of accepted payment. Cards accepted include Visa, Master Card, American Express and Discover.
You must be a Broward County resident to attend. All dogs must be on leashes and all cats in carriers.
Remember, there is now a $300 fine for failing to vaccinate your pet against rabies. You can also receive a $300 fine if your pet is vaccinated, but does not have a current Broward County registration tag.
