Free animal vaccine clinic held

ELLIS COUNTY – According to the Ellis County Sheriff’s Department, this past week’s free animal vaccine clinic was a huge success.

The process began at 8 a.m., but eager dog owners were lining up by 6:45 a.m.

Prepared for 400 vaccinations, the number of vaccinated dogs was just under 300.

There were also approximately 600 – 30 lbs. bags of dog food given out at the clinic.

The Sherrif’s Department gave a shout out to the workers from the SPCA who helped administer the vaccines and implant microchips. 

“This effort by them will hopefully help with some of the issues we face daily in the animal welfareworld,” a Facebook post at the ECSO’s office noted.

The Ellis County Sheriff’s Office Civil and ACO teams made sure traffic flowed easily during the process too – also thanking Waxahachie City Councilmembers for volunteering their time.
