Today is World Rabies Day!

Rabies is a virus that affects the brain and nervous system. The virus is present in the saliva of infected animals and it is usually spread through the bite or a acratch from an infected animal. The main wildlife sources of rabies in Florida are raccoons and bats.

The Rabies vaccine is a required vaccine in Florida for all dogs and cats that are 4 months or older. If you aren't sure if your pet is up to date or not, please contact us and we can verify the status of your pet's Rabies vaccine.



The following link provides a lot of great information about Rabies from the CDC:

Today is National Check the Chip Day!

According to the American Veterinary Medical Association, 10 million dogs and cats are lost or stolen in the United States every year. In a study published by the Journal of the AVMA, only 22% of lost dogs entering shelters were returned to their families, but that number increased to more than 52% when a dog was microchipped.

Consider microchipping your pets and if they are already chipped, make SURE you have your updated contact information registered with the chip company!
