The Putnam County Department of Health (DOH) invites pet owners to bring their dogs, cats and ferrets to Hubbard Lodge Saturday, July 13, from 10 a.m. to noon for free rabies vaccinations.

In order for pets receive the vaccinations, owners must bring photo ID as proof of Putnam County residency, and dogs must be on leashes and cats and ferrets in carriers. If proof of prior rabies vaccination (tags are not accepted) is not provided by owners, pets will only receive the one-year rabies vaccination.

Fahnestock State Park’s Hubbard Lodge is located at 2880 Route 9, just north of the intersection with Route 301. For more information, call the DOH at 845-808-1390, ext. 43127.
