Heaven Can Wait Animal Society and Petco Love Offer Free Vaccine Event

200 Free Vaccines Offered On First Come First Served Basis!

Heaven Can Wait Animal Society is partnering with national nonprofit Petco Love to give pets their best shot for a healthy life by hosting a free pet vaccine event on Saturday, March 12, 2022.

Petco Love established March as “National Pet Vaccination Month” to encourage pet parents to keep their pets up to date on vaccinations and will provide free pet vaccines to Heaven Can Wait Animal Society for family pets in need. As puppy and kitten season approaches, pet exposure to contagious and deadly diseases – parvovirus, distemper, and panleukopenia – increases but is preventable with a simple vaccine.

Heaven Can Wait Animal Society aims to vaccinate 200 pets through this effort. The free vaccine event will take place on March 12th 2022 8a-12p at their Spay and Neuter Clinic located at 546 N Eastern Ave Ste 175, Las Vegas NV 89101. This event will be first come first serve while supplies last.

-Each owner bring ONLY two pets per person along with previous shot records

-Dogs must be on a secure leash

-Cats must be in an airline approved carrier

Vaccines distributed through the Petco Love initiative will be the DAPPv Canine and HCP Feline vaccines. Heaven Can Wait Animal Society will also be providing free Rabies vaccines.

“Thanks to Petco Love, we can offer these important vaccines at no cost to pet owners,” said Francesca Fulciniti, Executive Director. “We urge community members to take advantage of this free resource to help reduce the spread of disease and ensure the health and wellness of our community’s pets.”

The Give Pets Their Best Shot initiative makes crucial pet vaccines accessible to pet parents who may be experiencing financial challenges and assures that cost is not a barrier to protecting pets from preventable diseases.

“Treatment for these deadly diseases can be prohibitively expensive for many pet parents,” said Susanne Kogut, Petco Love President. “By providing free vaccines to those in need, we can help these pets live a healthy life. Through this national effort and our other Petco Love Care initiatives, we continue our 22-year history of strategic investments and innovation to end unnecessary pet euthanasia.”

National Pet Vaccination Month is a continuation of Petco Love’s 1 million free pet vaccine campaign, which has helped 400,000 pets to date. Fifty percent of participating pet parents surveyed reported their pets had never been vaccinated against these diseases. With Bissell Pet Foundation as an additional partner this month, Petco Love’s goal is to increase awareness and accelerate the distribution of vaccines.
