Mark Your Calendar Free Rabies and Microchip Clinic on November 9

Mark your calendars for a free rabies and microchip clinic happening on November 9, 2024! Hosted by the local animal shelter, the event will take place from 10:00am to 1:00pm at the Bowie City Hall back parking lot.

This is a fantastic opportunity for pet owners to protect their furry friends with essential rabies vaccinations and permanent identification through microchipping, all at no cost. Both cats and dogs are welcome, and no appointment is needed—services will be provided on a first-come, first-served basis. Don't miss this chance to ensure your pet's safety and well-being!
