Photo courtesy of http://www.urbananimal.com/ontariorabies Rabies Vaccinations and/or Microchips are $25 EACH per animal (including HST).
- Rabies Vaccinations and Microchips can be purchased individually – you do not have to get both.
- These clinics are on a cash only basis and will be administered first come, first serve.
- Dogs must be on a leash or in a carrier. Cats must be in a carrier.
The clinics are sponsored by Dr. Jeff Rabinovitch, DVM from Bridletown Warden Animal Hospital, and Urban Animal Corporation. They are providing a lifetime subscription on HomeSafe™, a global cloud-based registration and recovery service.
HomeSafe™ provides the only on-line automated recovery system that allows all members of the community to post their own lost and found reports. It facilitates instant sharing of pet information among the general public and organizations in the community, and across North America when a pet goes missing.
Why vaccinate against rabies?

Rabies is a deadly disease in both humans and animals and has been found in over 275 Ontario animals.
