ACTion Programs for Animals offers low-cost vaccination, microchip clinic March 11

DAPP, FVRCP vaccines free of charge thanks to Petco Love

 

LAS CRUCES – ACTion Programs for Animals (APA) is hosting a low-cost microchip and vaccination clinic Saturday, March 11 from 9 to 11 a.m. at the APA adoption center, located at 537 N. Solano Dr.

 

Pre-registration is not required. The following will be offered for just $15 each:
  • Rabies vaccine (1-year dose; 3-year dose when appropriate)
  • Microchip
  • Bordetella vaccine

The following will be offered free thanks to Petco Love:

  • DAPP (Distemper, Adenovirus, Parainfluenza and Parvo) vaccine
  • FVRCP (Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis, Calicivirus and Panleukope) vaccine

These free vaccines are made possible through Petco Love’s national vaccination initiative, which is providing one million free pet vaccines to its existing animal welfare partners, including APA, for family pets in need.

“Thanks to Petco Love’s national vaccination initiative, APA continues to be able to offer free vaccines for pet owners in our community,” said APA Executive Director Michel Meunier. “Also, our bi-monthly, low-cost clinics are the only clinics in the area that offer 3-year rabies vaccines for qualified animals, and that’s what sets ours apart from other clinics.”

 

APA is only able to serve well-behaved dogs on leashes and cats in carriers. Anyone bringing their pet to the clinic should line up in their car, and they will be called into the building when it is their turn. APA accepts cash or credit cards.

 

Questions? Please text or call 575-644-0505, email mail@apalascruces.org or visit apalascruces.org.
