Today Is World Rabies Day

What have you done to help fight rabies lately? If the answer is "nothing," no need to look sheepish and lower your head to the floor. Today, September 28, is a special day dedicated to the prevention of this harmful disease. So now you can ask yourself, "What will I do on World Rabies Day?"

Here's how to get involved. The most important thing you can do is vaccinate your pet, and if you've already done so, make sure your friends do it, too.

Dr. Louise Murray, ASPCA Director of Medicine, weighs in: "It's essential that pet parents ensure their pets are protected from rabies; this fatal disease is completely preventable with proper vaccination. Together, we can all work to eradicate rabies, a devastating disease affecting both humans and animals across the globe."

In short, vaccinate, vaccinate, vaccinate!
