Sunday, August 21, 2016:
• 8:00-10:30 a.m.: The Montgomery County Animal Services and Adoption Center (MCASAC) will again hold rabies vaccination clinics once a month from April through September. The vaccinations are free with the purchase of a Montgomery County Pet License. Maryland law requires that all dogs, cats, and ferrets over the age of four months be continuously vaccinated against rabies. Also by law and beginning at that age, all dogs and cats must have a Montgomery County Pet License. A license can only be obtained with proof of a current rabies vaccination. Failure to vaccinate an animal as required may subject the owner to a $500 fine. Failure to have a license is subject to a $100 fine. The clinics will be held at the MCASAC located at 7315 Muncaster Mill Road in Derwood, between the hours of 8 a.m. and 10:30 a.m. Bring proof of previous rabies vaccinations. All dogs must be leashed and cats and ferrets must be in carriers or otherwise contained. Public parking at the MCASAC is limited.

For additional information on any of the meetings and events listed above, please contact Village Community Liaison/Administrative Assistant Ms. Melissa Wiak via e-mail at ccv@montgomerycountymd.gov.
