To help prevent the spread of rabies and assist residents with keeping pets safe at a reasonable cost, the City of Carrollton is offering rabies vaccinations for only $5 and free pet registrations on Saturday, March 18 from 10 a.m. to noon at the Carrollton Animal Services & Adoption Center (2247 Sandy Lake Road).

This event will include $5 rabies vaccinations, free City registration with proof of rabies vaccination for Carrollton residents, hot dogs, pretzels, drinks, a bounce house, and wildlife information. Carrollton animal owners must register their pets with the City each year.

Since proof of rabies vaccination is required with registration, it is convenient to register with the City when animals receive their shots. Identification, convenience, and savings all come with a pet’s City registration tag.

A current City tag clearly shows the public that a pet has been vaccinated against rabies. Registered pets may also be more quickly reunited with their owners if lost.

For more information, call Carrollton Animal Services & Adoption Center at 972-466-3420 or visit cityofcarrollton.com/animalservices.
