Today is National Check the Chip Day! Make sure your pet's microchip is up to date and registered! If you don't know the number you can go to most Veterinary Clinics or Animal Shelters and they should be able to scan your pet for you.
If your pet doesn't have a microchip you can get one here at the shelter for $20! It can make all the difference in getting your pet back and can help prevent theft. Keep your pet safe and Check the Chip.
We will be closing at 5:00PM tonight due to First Responders Night! We Hope to see you all there!

City Ordinance Sec. 10-47
Vaccinating your pets is very important for the safety of other animals and people they are interacting with. The rabies vaccination is an essential vaccination that should be provided for both inside and outside animals. The rabies vaccines can be a single-year vaccination or a multi-year vaccination.
Vaccinating and keeping your animals current on their vaccines creates a barrier of protection if they were to be bit by an infected animal. It also decreases the chance of domestic animals spreading rabies to the human population.
The rabies vaccination for people can be costly, so by having a veterinarian vaccinate your pet, it decreases the chance of people needing the vaccine if they were to be bitten.
Due to the rabies vaccination being required by the State of Kansas, the rate of animals that have come up as positive for rabies has decreased significantly. In 2023, there were a total of 25 positive tests for rabies in the State of Kansas while in 2013, there were a total of 60 positive tests for rabies.

This week is International Assistance Dog Week! The infographic below explains what an Assistance dog also known as a Service Dog is. They do a very important job and we feel it is very important to highlight them. Please remember that an Assistance Dog AKA Service Dog is not the same thing as an ESA. It takes a long time and a lot of money to train an Assistance Dog to do the job they do. It is important to remember not to touch or talk to an Assistance Dog while they are working. Please check out https://www.ada.gov/topics/service-animals/ for more information on Assistance/Service Dogs.
