A city license tag and rabies vaccination clinic on September 11 will make being a responsible and law-abiding pet owner easier for Fort Worth residents. The Center is located off Highway 287 and Southeast Loop 820 at the intersection of Martin and Village Creek in southeast Fort Worth. Dogs should be on leashes and cats should be in carriers. We are committed to preventing the spread of rabies into our community.
State law requires every dog or cat to be vaccinated at four months of age and annually thereafter.
The City of Fort Worth requires all dogs and cats to be registered with the city. The city tag contains veterinary clinic and animal control registration information that helps identify your pet and aid in its return if it becomes lost or impounded. Dogs and cats that are not properly vaccinated against rabies pose a public health risk. Failure to vaccinate is punishable by fines. The clinic is sponsored by the Fort Worth Public Health Department, the Tarrant County Veterinary Medical Association, and the Humane Society of North Texas.
