For Immediate Release May 28, 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 their pets.
On Saturday, June 8, 2013, from 8:00 a.m. to 11 a.m., the City of
Bakersfield Animal Control Division will be offering low cost rabies
vaccinations and licensing for city residents’ pets. Residents will also have
the opportunity to have their pet implanted with a FREE microchip, if their
pet is currently licensed. The clinic will be at Wilson Park, 2400 Wilson
Road.
The microchip program is an effort focused on reducing the number of
animals entering the shelter system. Typically microchipped pets are not
taken to the shelter, instead they are returned home.
For more information, please contact the City of Bakersfield Animal Control
Division at 661-326-3436. Information can also be obtained by visiting the
