The Clark Road Animal Clinic let me know that the doctors and clinic team are offering an incredible opportunity for people who love their pets but who might be struggling to care for them during these tough economic times — free vaccinations and routine health care for dogs and cats on December 11!

The Clinic is holding a day (December 11) of “Compassionate Care” for pet owners who apply for the assistance and who are selected to receive the care.

I’m not sure all that’s involved with the application process — but it appears to be fairly simple — you can find more information and application forms at www.clarkroadanimalclinic.com. The health care is free, but I did notice the Clinic welcomes any donations pet owners are able to make — no matter how small, I imagine.

If you know someone who has a beloved pet but has been putting off health care visits for those pets because of money issues, please let them know about this opportunity. Or, if you or someone else is thinking about adopting an animal and giving a dog or cat a permanent home, but are holding off because of the expense in getting those initial tests, etc., — what a great way to get the necessary first vaccinations and health exams — through this day of Compassionate Care.

Thanks to the Clark Road Animal Clinic for helping out the community of humans, canines, and felines!
