Who
Can Bring Animals to the Clinic?
Any resident of New Jersey may bring their dogs and cats to any clinic
held in the State. All dogs and cats over six months of age must be
vaccinated against RABIES prior to licensing. Please Note:
While cats are not licensed, Montgomery Township Board of Health ordinances
require that they be immunized against rabies. The State of New Jersey
law requires proof of the appropriate vaccination before a dog license
can be issued.
Why
Immunize?
It is important for all pet owners to be sure their dogs and cats
have protection against rabies. Many Montgomery Township pets have
undergone quarantine because they were attacked by rabid wildlife,
(mostly raccoons). All pets that were currently vaccinated remained
healthy during their ten day home quarantine period. The owners of
pets that were not vaccinated at the time they were exposed to rabid
wildlife had to choose to either euthanize their pet or quarantine
their pet for a six-month period. (Quarantine periods are set by New
Jersey State Law).
