An ongoing information fair will provide opportunities to meet new people and discover new ideas that will enhance your knowledge of available resources for neighborhood services and projects. The conference is sponsored by the Fort Worth League of Neighborhood Associations, the City of Fort Worth, the Fort Worth Independent School District and their partners, including the Fort Worth Star-Telegram, La Vida and La Semana . Dogs should be on leashes and cats in carriers. Pet owners should bring their companion animals to the Animal Care and Control Center at 4900 Martin Street. The center is located off Highway 287 and Southeast Loop 820 at the intersection of Martin and Village Creek in southeast Fort Worth.
State law requires every dog or cat be vaccinated at four months of age and annually thereafter.
The City of Fort Worth requires all dogs and cats be registered with the city. The city tag contains veterinary clinic and animal control registration information that helps identify a pet and can aid in the return of a lost or impounded animal. Dogs and cats who are not properly vaccinated against rabies pose a public health risk. Failure to vaccinate is punishable by fines. The low-cost vaccination clinic is sponsored by the Fort Worth Public Health Department, the Tarrant County Veterinary Medical Association and the Humane Society of North Texas.
