For Immediate Release March 8, 2013
The City of Bakersfield Animal Control Division would like to invite the
community to a low cost rabies vaccination, licensing and microchip clinic
for your pets.
On Saturday, March 9, 2013, from 9:00 a.m. until 12:00 p.m., the City of
Bakersfield Animal Control Division will be offering rabies vaccinations and
licensing, with the opportunity for your pet to receive a free microchip, once
currently licensed. The clinic will be at Beale Park, located at 500 Oleander
Avenue.
The free microchip program is an effort spearheaded by the city, which is
focused on reducing the number of impounded animals entering the shelter
system and is becoming the preferred way to reunite pets with their
owners.
For more information, please contact the City of Bakersfield Animal Control
Division at (661) 326-3436. Information can also be obtained by visiting the
