Wm. Co. Animal Center-Rabies & Microchip Clinic Saturday, PLUS Pet of the Week

Ruger is a low-key kind of guy. His only requests are a forever home with a comfy bed, two solid meals a day, and some pets and pats. Learn more about seven-year-old Ruger at Williamson County Animal Center.

RABIES & MICROCHIP CLINIC SATURDAY SEPTEMBER 26

Williamson County Animal Center (WCAC) in Franklin will have its monthly public rabies and microchip clinic on Saturday, September 26 from 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. at the shelter, 106 Claude Yates Dr.

The public is invited to bring their cats or dogs for $10 rabies shots and $15 microchips. The rabies fee includes a one-year shot and a collar tag. The optional microchip protects your pet from loss for a lifetime. Chips are automatically registered to a database so pets can be reunited with owners when found. The clinic accepts cash (small bills) and checks only; no credit or debit cards.

Williamson County Animal Center is located at 106 Claude Yates Dr., next to Franklin High School.  Owner surrenders of family pets require an appointment. Stray intake is open Monday-Friday from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Adoptions are currently on-line only. Animals can be viewed at www.adoptwcac.org or on Facebook.

Pet of the Week – Ruger

Ruger is a low-key kinda guy.  His only requests are a comfy bed, 2 solid meals a day, and some pets and pats.  At 7 years old, you need not worry about him destroying your home, and he is house trained.  Although he is a lower energy fellow, he does enjoy his walks.  Ruger does well with other dogs, but would not make an ideal “playmate” as he just finds playtime a bit dull.  He prefers netflix, sports and quiet time on the sofa.

Ruger is currently being treated for some skin allergies, he hope you will be willing to overlook the patches missing in his fur.  With proper medication, he will be as beautiful on the inside as he is on the outside.
