Human attendees must wear masks.
Pre-registration is required, and those bringing 5 or more pets should make special arrangements by phone or e-mail. Those wishing to pre-register to have their pets vaccinated should call (585) 243-7280 (Livingston County Department of Health), e-mail sbennett@co.livingston.ny.us or register online at www.health.ny.gov/gotoclinic/26.
Those wishing to get a three-year certificate should bring with them proof of a prior rabies shot; otherwise, the certificate will only be for one year. All dogs must receive a rabies vaccination in order to be eligible for licensure by the town, and there is usually a fine for possession of an unlicensed dog.
