CLINIC HELPS PETS KEEP US HEALTHIER AND HAPPIER

Low cost vaccination clinic helps pets keep us healthier and happier.
NAFA recognizes that owning a loyal pet companion during difficult economic times actually enhances our mood and wards off potential depression. When we feel like the world has turned it's back on us, a steadfast, non-judgmental four-legged friend will entertain us, keep us company and help us refocus our thoughts on the good life has to offer. Having a pet actually lowers blood pressure and heart rates significantly and can be considered a cost-effective health benefit, as opposed to potential expensive medical check-ups and blood pressure medications. Pet owners exercise more frequently as they walk their pets and play with them out-of-doors. The health benefits of increased exercise more than offset the costs incurred by keeping our pets healthy and well fed. This also affords the opportunity for more contact with others, a particular benefit to those who live alone or have no family nearby.
NAFA will again sponsor Jack Jones, DVM in a low cost pet vaccination clinic this Saturday, October 24th from 7:30 am to 11:30 am at our Animal Services Building – 233 North Gee Strette (red and white building on corner of Gee Street and Dan Avenue across from Riceland Foods). Services are provided for pet owners that qualify as low income, disabled, elderly, unemployed or if the animal is a stray. The animal must not have seen a veterinarian other than Dr. Jones within the past 12 months.
Vaccinations for dogs and cats, heartworm testing, heartworm preventative and brief vet visit will be provided.
