CHEYENNE, Wyo. — Black Dog Animal Rescue will host its third Community Vaccine Clinic of the year on Saturday, Nov. 4. The clinic will take place from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at 2407 E. 9th St. in Cheyenne.

Vaccines and microchips will be available for cats and dogs at prices ranging from free to $20. Available vaccines include rabies for both cats and dogs, DA2PP and Bordetella for dogs, and FVRCP for cats.

Thanks to a grant from Petco Love, Black Dog Animal Rescue is able to provide the DA2PP and FVRCP vaccines completely free to the community.

They will also be offering microchips for $20, which are the fastest, most reliable way for a lost pet to be reunited with their family. Rabies and Bordetella vaccinations will be offered for $20 each.

Appointments are strongly encouraged. To make an appointment, call 307-514-4024.

Pets must be at least six weeks of age to receive parvo/distemper, kennel cough and FVRCP vaccines, and three months old for rabies.

Microchipping your pet will help you reunite with them if they ever become lost. There are no registration fees to microchip your pet through Black Dog Animal Rescue. Keeping pets up to date on their vaccinations will protect them from disease. Additionally, the rabies vaccine is required by law.

“These clinics are an important part of our mission to care for our community and their pets. So far we’ve already helped almost 160 pets get vaccinated or microchipped this year at little or no cost to our community,” said Emilee Intlekofer, executive director at Black Dog Animal Rescue.

Black Dog Animal Rescue’s mission is to promote, provide and advocate for the needs of companion animals.

To participate in this event, pet owners must be 18 years old with a valid photo ID and have their pet(s) on a leash or in a crate. Microchips and vaccines will be available through appointments with limited walk-up spaces available.
