THREE THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT RABIES! 1. #Bats are the most frequently reported carrier of rabies (followed by raccoons and skunks). 2. Rabies is spread through contact, such as a bite or scratch. 3. #Rabies is usually deadly without treatment. It’s important to seek immediate medical treatment if you’ve been bitten or scratched by an unknown animal. Learn more about rabies at https://bit.ly/2GiV9sz

Making sure your pets are vaccinated for rabies is a great way of helping the goal of ZERO rabies deaths by 2030. Learn more at https://rabiesalliance.org/

Vaccinating your dog against #rabies is required by law and has played a huge role in reducing rabies. It is usually spread by #dogs, #bats, coyotes, foxes, skunks, and raccoons to humans by an animal bite and once symptoms appear almost always deadly.

Part of being a responsible pet parent is making sure your #puppy is up to date on vaccines. Ideally, puppy vaccines start at 8 weeks with 2 rounds of boosters 4 weeks apart. The final round contains a #rabies vaccine.

We are no longer staging horses in Yucaipa, but both our shelters continue to provide a safe place for animals evacuated by the fires. Meet Hedwig, a super friendly black and white guy that loves to lean into being petted and Calico Cammy that is super sweet and calm. #ElDoradoFire #DevoreAnimalShelter ##bigbearanimalshelter

Dozens of animals have been assisted by San Bernardino County Animal Care and Control during the El Dorado Fire. Murphy, a horse from #Yucaipa, was assisted by ACC staff who helped his owner evacuate him to safety. Call 1-800-472-5609 for assistance with evacuated animals.

These are some of our county’s #eldoradofire Fire evacuees resting comfortably at the #Yucaipa Equestrian Center. We are so glad they are safe and comfortable. Many of the evacuated horses are therapy horses from Yucaipa. @cityofyucaipa

DYK it’s not safe to put a mask on your pet? While pets can get COVID-19 from people, the risk of pets spreading COVID-19 is low. Instead, protect your pet by limiting their contact with sick people and people outside the household: https://bit.ly/2z9q5be.
