JEFFERSON, LA – In conjunction with the Southeast Louisiana Veterinary Association and the Jefferson SPCA, Jefferson Protection & Animal Welfare Services (JPAWS) will be hosting a Jefferson Parish Rabies Vaccination Drive on Saturday, June 18, 2022 from 12 p.m. – 4 p.m. at the Alario Center (2000 Segnette Blvd., Westwego, LA 70094).
This event drive welcomes dogs and cats (dogs must be on a leash and cats must be in a carrier). The event drive is $20 (cash or credit card) and covers rabies vaccine, license and tag (good for one year). Licenses will only be issued to Jefferson Parish residents.
“We are excited to be joining with the Southeast Louisiana Veterinary Association and the Jefferson SPCA to host this important event for our four-legged friends here in Jefferson Parish,” said the Director of Jefferson Protection & Animal Welfare Services Michelle Brignac. “Rabies vaccinations are not only required by law for dogs and cats, but the shot is also essential in order to prevent your pet from acquiring the disease from wildlife and prevents possible transmission to your family or other people.”
