Vaccine and Microchip Clinics

Monthly clinics are held at various senior centers. Albuquerque seniors over 65 years of age qualify for a free microchip, free license, and reduced fee vaccines for their pets. There is a $5.00 cost for each shot. Available shots include annual cat and dog boosters, rabies vaccine, and kennel cough vaccine. A limited number of pets are accommodated, so seniors are encouraged to sign up for services at the senior centers prior to the clinic date.
