🛑❗️ TL;DR: Rabies is still a concern in our area. If your pet's rabies vaccine isn't up to date, now is the time to check. Give us a call and we'll be happy to review their records and schedule an appointment if needed. 🛑❗️
One of our team members got quite a surprise this morning when she opened her front door to head to work and found a fox sitting on her front porch.
After safely stepping back inside, she observed the fox displaying several abnormal behaviors. This video is only a small snippet of what she witnessed.
Rabies is a very real concern in our community and surrounding areas. While not every wild animal behaving oddly has rabies, unusual behavior such as disorientation, lack of fear around people, stumbling, aggression, excessive vocalization, or appearing active during unusual hours should always be taken seriously.
If you encounter wildlife acting abnormally:
🐾 Keep your distance
🐾 Do not approach or attempt to help the animal
🐾 Keep children and pets safely indoors
🐾 Contact local Animal Control or Wildlife Services
Most importantly, make sure your pets stay up to date on their rabies vaccinations. Rabies is nearly always fatal once symptoms develop, but it is preventable through proper vaccination.
