The Asheville Humane Society in conjunction with Environmental Health is  offering rabies vaccination clinics to allow you to keep your pets' rabies vaccinations current at a low cost. The cost of a vaccination is $5 per pet.

All pets will be given a 1-Year rabies vaccination certificate, unless the owner brings signed paperwork providing proof that a rabies vaccination was given within 15 months prior to your appointment. If paperwork is provided, your pet will be given a 3-Year rabies certificate. Keep in mind that the rabies tag your pet wears around its neck does not include a date and cannot be used to verify prior vaccination.

The following clinics will be held from 8am - 12pm at 72 Lee's Creek Road, Asheville 28806, by appointment (call 236-3885):Rabies Shot
