The Parker County Sheriff’s Office is making the public aware of a confirmed rabies case involving three dogs that were at one time located in Parker County.
The Parker County Sheriff’s Office was notified on June 29 that on June 21, three dogs were picked up by a good samaritan near the 1100 block of Baker Road and brought to the Pet Hospital of Granbury for a routine vet check. It was during a quarantine period that one of the dogs began to exhibit signs and symptoms of rabies. The dogs were thoroughly examined by a doctor of veterinarian medicine, tested for rabies and the test results were positive. Currently all the dogs in question have been humanely euthanized.
The sheriff's office shared a photo of the dogs to warn anyone who may have had direct contact.
