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):
- March 10
- April 14

It will save time if you print out and complete our Vaccination Service Request form prior to arriving at the clinic.
