Vaccines
We require Rabies Vaccinations for all pets.
Wisconsin state law requires all dogs aged 5 months and older to be vaccinated against rabies.
Minnesota does not have a comprehensive, statewide mandatory rabies vaccination law for pets, meaning requirements are instead set by local county or city ordinances.
Rabies Vaccination (Dog and Cat):
-
We give our patients their first Rabies vaccine at 4 months of age or older.
-
First Rabies vaccine is good for 1 year.
-
If given in 1 year after the first, the Rabies vaccine will then be good for 3 years.
-
If overdue for their Rabies vaccine it will be considered another 1 year vaccine.
