Release Date: November 20, 2025
Note: Vaccinate only healthy cats and dogs at clinics. Ferrets, rabbits, wolf-hybrids, and other animals will NOT be vaccinated at clinics. Contact your veterinarian for instructions on vaccination of these animals.

Other options for rabies vaccinations include: a veterinary hospital, a clinic in another town/municipality, or a participating pet supply store. You will need to contact each place for a schedule, they are not walk-in establishments. If you choose any of these options, please make sure to retain your rabies certificate, this is what you will need to license your pet.
