Protect your pets! A rabies clinic will be held Tuesday, July 16, 2013 from 6PM to 7PM at the Town of Kirkwood Highway Garage on Crescent Drive in Kirkwood. Pets need to be at least 3 months old and must be restrained by a responsible adult. If your pet has had a previous rabies vaccination, bring that certificate to the clinic. A $5.00 donation is requested. Since all dogs harbored in New York State over the age of 4 months must be licensed showing proof of a current rabies vaccination, this is a good opportunity to see that your dog is vaccinated. Contact Broome County Health Dept. at 778-2887 with any questions.
