Rabies Clinic Location Change

The September 13th rabies clinic, sponsored by the Broome County Health Department and the Front Street Dog Shelter Alliance, will NOT be held at Fire Station #3 on West State Street, Binghamton, as previously announced. The clinic location is being moved to Otsiningo Park (near the pavilion) to coincide with the YWCA Encore Plus Canine Companion Walk that will be held on that day. The clinic hours are from 9:30 - 11:30 a.m.

Anyone with a dog, cat or pet ferret that needs a rabies vaccination is invited to attend. Animals receiving their first vaccination must be at least 3-months old. A $5 donation per animal is requested to help cover the cost of the clinic but is not required. All pets will be vaccinated regardless of the owner's ability to donate. If your pet has had a previous rabies vaccination, bring the certificate with you so that your pet may receive a three year vaccination. Without the certificate, your pet will receive a one-year vaccination. Pets must be under the control of their owner while at the clinic.
