The Extension service with the University of Georgia is sponsoring a rabies clinics for area pets on Saturday, May 31 at five locations spread across Bulloch County.

The vaccines for both cats and dogs are $12 each and will benefit Bulloch 4-H. 

According to Bulloch County's Dr. Steve Healy, who will be administering the rabies vaccinations, “While rare, the deadly rabies virus is still a problem in Georgia. It is primarily transmitted to your cats and dogs from bites from racoons, skunks, bats, and foxes.
