Schedule of Dog Vaccination Clinics
For Moore County For 1957
The N. C. Law requires every dog to be vaccinated. Heretofore the law
required that all dogs six months or older be vaccinated annually, but a
different type of vaccine is being used in 1957.. This year, all dogs four
months old or older must be vaccinated, and the new vaccine is effective
for three years. However, dogs being vaccinated under six months of age
this year must be given a booster shot next year. G.S. 67-33 requires that
every dog at all times be required to wear a collar with the owner's name
and address stamped on or otherwise firmly attached to the collar.
The taxing authorities have furnished you with a numbered metal tag for
each dog listed for the year 1957. PLEASE HAVE THIS TAG ATTACHED
TO COLLAR WHEN DOG IS VACCINATED. When your dog is vacci
nated be sure to get a receipt and a vaccination tag.
Beginning May 1. 1957. all dogs not vaccinated and listed for taxes will be
picked up and impounded. Owners can retrieve their impounded dogs
within five days by paying the cost, taxes, and by having the dog vacci
nated. THIS LAW WILL BE ENFORCED. Save yourlelf extra cost by
cooperating with the rabies control law.
The charge will be $1.00 for each dog vaccinated. This charge is in effect
at the clinics only. It will be'more elsewhere.
