Why this matters in The Nashville

The upcoming free microchip and rabies clinic at Metro Nashville Animal Care and Control's location on Harding Place is a valuable resource for Davidson County residents who may be struggling to afford pet care. By offering these essential services at no cost, MACC is helping to ensure that pets in the community are protected against rabies and can be easily identified if they become lost. This clinic is particularly important given the county's requirements that all dogs and cats six months and older be vaccinated for rabies and registered. With two additional clinics scheduled for later in the year, residents who are unable to attend this weekend's event will have further opportunities to take advantage of these free services. By providing these clinics, MACC is promoting public health and safety, as well as the welfare of pets in the community.
