Protect Your Best Friend: Keep Up with Rabies Vaccinations!

Did you know that rabies is a fatal virus that poses a serious risk not just to your dog, but also to your family and community? Ensuring your furry friend stays up-to-date on their rabies vaccination is one of the most important steps you can take to safeguard their health and prevent the spread of this deadly disease.

Regular rabies vaccinations:
- Protect Your Pet: Keeps your dog safe from a virus that has no cure.
- Protect Your Community: Helps prevent the spread of rabies to other animals and humans.
- Fulfill Legal Requirements: Many regions mandate regular rabies vaccinations for pet ownership.

Don't wait until it's too late—schedule your dog's vaccination today and join the fight against rabies!

Rabies vaccines can be administered by your regular vet or at vaccine clinics such as those offered at Tractor Supply and the Jackson County Animal Shelter.
