Rabies Vaccine Clinics
Rabies is a viral disease that affects the central nervous system of warm-blooded mammals, including humans. The most common transmitters of the disease are bats, foxes, skunks and raccoons; however pets and other domestic animals can also spread rabies. In Ontario, all cats, dogs and ferrets must be vaccinated for rabies at 3 months old and must remain up to date for the duration of the pet’s life.
To help protect people and their pets from the disease, the HKPR DIstrict Health Unit partners with local veterinary offices to promote Reduced-Cost Rabies Vaccination Clinics.
Upcoming Clinics
The cost is $40 per animal (unless otherwise specified), cash only. No appointments are needed, and dogs must remain on leash and cats must be in a secure carrier. Owners should bring proof of their pet’s most recent rabies vaccination if applicable.
The Reduced-Cost Rabies Vaccination Clinics do not include an examination of pets. Owners will need to schedule another appointment with their vet to have their pet fully screened.
