<u>ARKANSAS PASSES NEW RABIES LAW--3 Year Law to be Set!</u>

The Arkansas House (91-5) and Senate (35-0) passed a new rabies law authorizing the State Health Department to establish rabies vaccination schedules http://www.arkleg.state.ar.us/assemb...asureno=HB1274 which will result in a 3 year rabies protocol for Arkansas dogs and cats.

<span style="color: #990000">"The senate also gave final legislative approval to House Bill 1274 by Rep. Pam Adcock, D-Little Rock, which would modernize the state’s rabies vaccination laws. Under the bill, rabies vaccinations for dogs and cats would be required every three years, rather than every year under current law."</span>
