For Immediate Release: Thursday, January 7, 2021
The Office of Animal Services’ Montgomery County Animal Services and Adoption Center (MCASAC) will begin hosting free appointment-based rabies clinics for dogs, cats, and ferrets of Montgomery County residents. The clinics will take place at the County’s animal shelter facility located at 7315 Muncaster Mill Road in Derwood, on select Wednesdays beginning Jan. 20. The Office of Animal Services recognizes that the free rabies clinics are an important resource for pet owners in the community.
Due to COVID-19, to minimize risk for both participants and staff, the clinics will be appointment-based only. All appointments must be made online through the MCASAC website. Appointments may be made up to three weeks in advance. At this time, MCASAC will not provide pet licensing or microchipping services as part of the clinics but hope to add these options in the future.
