Rehoboth-Seekonk Second Annual Rabies Clinic a Success

Posted

Thank you to Seekonk’s Town Clerk, Animal Control Officers, Highway Department, Save a Pet Volunteers, Dr. Trusdale and Staff!

From Rehoboth’s Town Clerk - Laura Schwall, Assistant Town Clerk – Lynn Shaker, and Animal Control Officer - Jane Foster

Seekonk and Rehoboth teamed up for their second annual “co-town” Rabies Clinic on the morning of Saturday, March 14th at the Seekonk Highway Department. During that time, over 176 dogs and cats were vaccinated this year, which beat our record last year of 150. Rabies vaccinations were available at a cost of $12/animal, and Dr. Trusdale administered the vaccines with the help of Seekonk and Rehoboth Animal Control Officers. Both Rehoboth and Seekonk Town Clerks were available for those residents who wanted to renew their 2015 dog’s license. Rehoboth had 73 animals vaccinated and registered 48 dogs/cats this year. A good time was had by all and many families benefited by the services the clinic offered. Both towns have agreed to team up for the third annual Seekonk-Rehoboth Rabies Clinic next year. Details will be included in the 2016 Census mailer in January. Thank you all who supported our event.
