The Hardin County Animal Shelter is reminding area pet owners to mark their calendars for their largest annual vaccination clinic.
“Our once a year, great big rabies clinic is coming up Saturday, September 28 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. out at the Hardin County Fairgrounds’s main pavilion,” said Hardin County Animal Care and Control Director Mike McNutt.
McNutt says the annual rabies clinic is the safest and easiest way to get these services for your cat or dog.
“It’s right after the new licenses go,” McNutt said. “It gives you the rest of the year before you have to worry about it again, so it is the main rabies clinic for Hardin County.”
Only cash or check payments will be accepted and animals must be at least 12 weeks old.
“You can get a rabies vaccination for a dog or a cat for $13.78,” McNutt said. “The Distemper Parvo vaccine will be $13.78 for dogs (Feline Distemper vaccines are also $13.78). Strongid, which is the dewormer we use, is $5.30. That just kills roundworms. The Bordetella vaccine will be $16.96. Microchipping will be $21.20, and of course a $15 license.”
