May is Rabies Awareness Month

Vaccine Clinic

IT IS THE LAW that all cats and dogs must be vaccinated for Rabies. The fine is $136.00 per pet not vaccinated and we enforce this every time!

 Rabies is an infectious disease of the central nervous system that is caused by a virus. There is NO cure once symptoms appear. The diesease is totally preventable for people and domestic animals through use of vaccines.

 Ledyard Animal Control and the Dog Scout Troop 188 are hosting our bi-annual Wellness Clinic ~ JUNE 10th ~ 10 am - 2 pm ~. It is at the Ledyard High School in the Ledyard Ag-Sci center.

 The Rabies Vaccines are only $5.00 with a waste disposal fee of $3.00. The Luv My Pet clinic also has Vaccine Packages that are a great deal for cats and dogs. You do not need to be a resident of Ledyard/Gales Ferry to come. Besides the clinic there will be welcome bags and vendors.
