Montgomery Studies
Dog Vaccination Plan
{ May InocuIote, 10000
= To Halt Robes Spread

A study was underway today to
determine the feasibility of a cam
paign to vaccinate Montgomery
County's approximately 10000 dogs
in an attempt to stop the spread of
rabies
After meeting earlier this week
of County Farm Bureau officials,
members of the Board of County
Commissioners and county health
and agriculture officials, DR.. A. l..
Brueckner, acting director of the
State Livestock Sanitary Service,
was requested to investigate results
of vaccination campaigns in other
States and determine the cost of a
similar program for Montgomery
County.
If an immunization program is
found feasible, the State Livestock
Sanitary Service will be requested
to conduct the campaign in Mont
gomery County as an experiment,
it was said.
According to preliminary plans,
dogs given the preventive treatment
would wear an identification tag,
thus allowing stray dogs not vac
cinated to be impounded or de-
stroyed. 1t was pointed out the
present dog quarantine is costing
the county approximately $1,000 to
enforce and that vaccinations
eventually would relieve the neces-
Sity for q quarantine.
