There will be several opportunities this month in St. Joseph to get your pet vaccinated against rabies.

Kappy Hodges with the Friends of the St. Joseph Animal Shelter said Animal Control and Rescue is sponsoring low cost vaccination clinics this week and next week.

“You can get your rabies vaccinations for your pets and your combination shots for much less than they usually cost,” Hodges said. “When they do these vaccination clinics, they’ll also do the microchips which only cost $10 that the Animal Control folks can put in for you. You can get your dog park tag because you’re right there getting all your vaccinations and those are the kinds of things you have to show, you have to show that your dog is vaccinated and also spayed or neutered.”

The following clinics will each be held from 6 to 8 p.m. –

Monday, May 6, at Lindbergh Elementary School, 2812 St. Joseph Ave.

Tuesday, May 7, at Hosea Elementary School, 6401 Gordon Street

Thursday, May 9, at First Church of the Nazarene, 2102 South 22nd Street

Tuesday, May 14, at Skaith Elementary School, 4701 Schoolside Lane

Thursday, May 16, Mark Twain Elementary School, 801 S. 31st Street
