IDAHO FALLS – Snake River Animal Shelter is providing free vaccinations for pets in the Idaho Falls area this weekend.

It’s happening Saturday until 2 p.m. and Sunday from noon to 3 p.m. at 3000 Lindsay Boulevard.

The vaccines are made possible through Petco Love’s national vaccination initiative Vaccinated and Loved, which is providing an additional one million free pet vaccines to existing animal welfare partners, including SRAS, for family pets in need.

Parvovirus and distemper in dogs and panleukopenia in cats — the most prevalent deadly diseases affecting pets — are preventable with a simple vaccine. An estimated 30% of pet parents do not take their pet to a veterinarian annually for preventative care.
