Gloucester County Freeholder Director Robert M. Damminger and Freeholder Jim Jefferson announced that the Department of Health and Human Services will hold Rabies Clinics in 2019 starting in early January through April, offering free rabies shots for pets.
“Rabies is a dangerous disease that can infect our pets, and lead to pets infecting humans,” Damminger said. “These free clinics offer a way for pet owners to easily comply with rabies vaccine updates and protect our pets and our communities from this disease.”
Added freeholder Jim Jefferson, the liaison to the Department of Health and Human Services: “While rabies is rare in cats and dogs, it is widely present in other animal populations such as bats and raccoons, who can bite and infect pets. These clinics are convenient and residents attend any location they choose.”
