$16.00 if your dog is intact

Interesting way to put that ...

=) it's easier than saying unspayed & unneutered.

they should say $8 if you're willing to untact your dog right there :)

it's an annoying tax though. especially since it's MORE important for cats (as they roam moar).

i've been told the 1-3-5 rabies shots are the same vaccine from the same bottle. weirdness.

Cats are not licensed, though.

yeah, true, though i'm torn because it's an incentive [supposedly, i guess $6 is kind of whatever] for people to fix their pets.

is this for somerville residents only?

We don't turn anyone away.

great thank you! i have some people that may be interested, myself included :)

...well, my dogs anyway, lulz.

It's a really good deal, especially in this economy. And the vet who volunteers is great.

I agree that it VERY important for cats to be spayed/neutered. I will also say that it is just as important for dogs.

You are correct about the 1 & 3 year shots,(I have never heard of a 5 yr shot) they are the same shot. If the animal is current on their rabies vaccination at the time of the vaccination then the shot is good for 3 yrs.
