Texas Animal Shelter Coalition workshop
Low Cost Shot Clinic Dr. Laura Szeremi of Banfield Veterinary Clinic and her staff donated their time and supplies to vaccinate well over 200 dogs and cats. The event was scheduled from 1 to 4 p.m., but volunteers stayed until after 7 p.m. to finish vaccinating all pets that had arrived by 4 p.m. Killeen Animal Control issued city licenses free of charge to all pets who received rabies vaccinations.
