The Galveston County Animal Resource Center (ARC) is happy to host two low-cost pet vaccination clinics on Thursday, August 25 and Friday, August 26. Both clinics are open to residents of any city and will include pet microchipping and county registration. Appointments are not required.
Low-Cost Vet Vaccinations
Low-cost vaccinations, flea control and heartworm testing and treatment services through ARC range from $15 for a rabies vaccine for both dogs and cats to $60 for the dog package and $45 for the cat package. Specific pricing is online at www.gchd.org/arc.
Microchips and Registration
Microchips are available for all cats and dogs, regardless of jurisdiction, for just $20 each. County regulation requires pet owners who live in the municipalities served by the ARC (Bayou Vista, Hitchcock, Kemah, La Marque, Texas City, Tiki Island and unincorporated Galveston County) to register their pets. There is no registration fee for pets that are already microchipped. Registration for pets that are not microchipped is $20 and includes a microchip. The fee is $15 for pet owners age 65 and older.
Location
Both clinics will take place at ARC, located at 3412 25th Ave. North (Loop 197 North) in Texas City from 2-4 p.m. Aug. 25 and noon-3 p.m. Aug. 26. Cash, check and major credit cards are accepted. For more information call the ARC at 409-948-2485.
