Dr. Whitney Collins, a visiting veterinarian, will be offering vaccines and health exams at the Saipan Mayor’s Animal Shelter on Saturday, March 4, from 8am to 12pm, and on Monday, March 6, from 9am to 12pm, in partnership with Saipan Humane Society.
Collins is interested in dog population management to support a healthy island ecosystem, and excited to help the islands’ pets. She would like to extend her gratitude to Saipan Mayor Ramon “RB” Camacho for hosting her at the Animal Shelter and Clinic facility.
Services available include rabies vaccines, which can only be given by a licensed veterinarian. Other services will also be offered, including parvovirus vaccines and kennel cough vaccines for dogs, cat vaccines, microchips, heartworm tests, and a limited supply of flea/tick prevention medicine.
Collins will also be available to address specific animal health concerns in 15-minute time slots. Costs per service range from $12 to $25.
Appointments will be on a walk-in basis. If bringing a cat, ensure they are enclosed in a carrier or secure box. If bringing a dog, ensure they are wearing a well-fitting leash.
This clinic will take place at the Mayor’s Animal Shelter in As Perdido. The shelter can be reached at 234-3647.
