G.S. 130A-185 of the North Carolina Animal Control laws requires the owner of every dog and cat over four months of age to have the animal vaccinated against rabies.
We have two dates for discounted vaccinations, one in March and one in April. The vaccinations will be given by local veterinarians. There will be a $5.00 charge for dogs and cats vaccinated at the times and locations listed for residents of Johnston County. After the clinics are completed, animals must be vaccinated at their owner's expense by a licensed veterinarian.
Only one year rabies vaccination tags will be given out.
N.C. State Law requires that all dogs wear their rabies tag. County ordinance requires all dogs to wear collars. The County Animal Control Division will collect and impound at-large animals not wearing collars and tags. Anyone may impound stray dogs and cats at the County Animal Shelter.
Dates and times of the upcoming clinics are as follows:
