We're hosting our monthly low cost vaccination and microchip clinic this Saturday, February 15, starting at 9am! If your pet is in need of a vaccine or microchip, we encourage you to stop in. We accept walk-ins only, so no appointment is needed!

🐶 We're now offering the Leptospirosis vaccine for dogs! Leptospirosis is a bacterial infection that is spread through the urine of infected animals and can transmit through contact with contaminated water or soil. All dogs are at risk of Lepto, but you may consider getting this vaccine for your dog if they are often exposed to lakes or river water, farm animals or wildlife, or around other pets at a dog park or boarding facility to give your dog extra protection.

Note: If it's your dog's first Leptospirosis vaccine, you will need to have a booster shot administered one month later. We will have the initial vaccine and boosters at all future vaccination clinics.

Spots are limited to 80 people, and each individual can bring up to 3 pets with them. It's first come, first served! This event will take place at our shelter located at 3161 W. Norton Road, Springfield, MO. 📍

Here's how the clinic works:

🐾 Registration will begin at 9am. When you arrive, come inside without your pet(s) to receive a form. Once the form is filled out completely, return it to us to receive a number. This number is your spot in line. Then, all guests should be prepared to wait in their vehicle with their pet(s) until their number is called. Once your number is called, bring your pet(s) inside and our staff will take it from there!

🐾 For your pet's safety, all dogs must be on leashes and all cats must be in carriers during the entire duration of their visit to the shelter. If you are bringing multiple cats, please separate them and use an individual cat carrier for each cat.

🐾 The clinic will run until 80 people are registered or 1pm, whichever comes first. You can call us at 417-833-2526 anytime that day to check on the status of the clinic.

- Individual Vaccines: $12 each
- Cat Package (FVRCP, Rabies): $20
- Dog Package (Bordetella, DHPP, Rabies): $30
- Dog Package with Lepto: $40
- Microchip: $25 each

PSA

The American Kennel Club shared a post from its AKC Reunite page, encouraging people to enroll in microchips with AKC Reunite. The post said in part, "If your dog or cat has a microchip number that starts with 991 or 900164 then it could be a Save This Life microchip. Save This Life suddenly closed, and your pet may not be protected."

Is your pet chipped through this company?
Take action TODAY if so!

PS - At your ANNUAL wellness visit you should ALWAYS have your cats and dogs scanned to see WHERE in the body the chip comes up - they can travel AND they can sometimes work themselves out of th body entirely!

🌟 Pupper Spotlight! 🌟

Say “Hi” to Chips the Jack Russell Chihuahua Mix 😍😍

Chips’s favorite activity on the farm: Wrestling the other puppies! 🤼‍♂️🐶

From Chips’s Mom: “I have been using Mallory for doggy daycare for weeks now for my puppy, and I cannot recommend her enough! My puppy has the BEST time with her and is so excited to see her. She takes great care of her clients pets, and I'm always so happy to see the photo updates of my dog playing with the others. She is super knowledgeable with pet care and is also helping with training my pup on his manners. She's the best!”

Thank you for letting us love on Chips while you’re working! We’re so lucky to get to spend time with him! 🐶🐾
