JOIN US AT THE FARMER'S MARKET
UPDATE: Much as we hate to do it, we are going to have to cancel our outreach at the March 4th Farmer's Market. Weather is predicted to be freezing, and that is just too cold for us to take our animals to an outdoor event.
We will have an adoption booth Thursday March 4th at the Farmer's Market in Ocala at Circle Square Commons, Top of the World, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. (weather permitting). The market also features locally-grown fresh seasonal produce, baked goods, plants, hand-made soaps and more. We look forward to seeing you there! For directions, call Gary or Antonio (352) 427-3982 or email us:

Vet Expense Survey
Many people do not realize that there can be a big difference between what different vets charge for the same services. On 2-11-10 we did our annual mini-survey of 5 vets in Marion County.
What we priced was a pretty standard package of services that included: An exam, a rabies vaccine, a fecal check, a skin scrape, a heartworm test, and a nail trim. Here are the range of prices we were given:
Vet A: $119.
Vet B: $125.
Vet C: $167.54
Vet D: $ 122.50
Vet E: $142.
MICROCHIPS
If you are looking for a low-cost way to chip your pet, The Marion County Animal Center offers pet microchipping for $5.00
When you have a microchip implanted by a vet, or if you get a dog that has a chip in it, you must register yourself as the owner in the database of the company that made the microchip.
The two major manufacturers of microchips are Avid and Home Again. Registration costs about $15 and must be mailed to the company. Your vet does not do this when he puts in the microchip - you must do it yourself separately. Please check and see if your pet has a microchip and register it NOW! And if you have moved, make sure you have notifed the microchip company about your change of address and contact information. Your pet's life could depend on it.
Email us for further information about microchips.
