The City of El Paso Animal Services Division is hosting a microchip and rabies vaccination clinic for dogs and cats from 7 a.m. to 11 a.m. on April 4th 2009.
Vaccinations and microchips will be administered on a first-come, first-served basis at the El Paso Animal Services Shelter, at 5001 Fred Wilson Road.
The services are available to low-income families and senior citizens. Those receiving services must provide proof of low income eligibility (WIC, Social Security Supplements, Lone Star Card, pay stubs).
The reduced costs for the services are:
Vaccinations and Registration: $12.00
Microchip: $8.00
We ask the public to please pay with cash or a check. Those paying with a check must show a valid driver’s license.
Pets receiving the services must be at least 4 months of age, healthy, and properly restrained. We recommend that dogs be on a leash and cats in a carrier. If possible, senior citizens should be accompanied by someone else to help them with their pets.
Animal Services encourages the public to take advantage of these clinics. Under Texas law, all pets must be registered and vaccinated against rabies. Pets within the El Paso city limits must also be microchipped, according to Title 7 of the El Paso Municipal Code.
For more information about the clinic, call Animal Services at 842-1000.
