🦠 Rabies in Georgia: What Our Community Needs to Know 🐾
Rabies is still very present right here in Georgia—and protecting your pet means staying informed and up to date. Here’s what we want our Two Beating Hearts family to know 💛
🔹 Rabies is active year-round in Georgia
This isn’t a rare disease—it’s consistently found across the state.
🔹 Wildlife is the biggest risk
Raccoons, bats, foxes, and skunks are the most common carriers—and your pet doesn’t have to go far to be exposed.
🔹 Cases are happening locally
Recent rabies cases have been reported right here in DeKalb County, including both wildlife and domestic animals.
🔹 Even one exposure can be serious
Rabies is fatal once symptoms appear—but completely preventable with proper vaccination.
🔹 Prevention = Protection
Keeping your pet current on their rabies vaccine protects:
✔️ Your pet
✔️ Your family
✔️ Your community
💉 At Two Beating Hearts, we believe prevention is love in action.
📅 Not sure if your pet is up to date? Let’s check—because protecting them starts with us.
