An important message from Mountain Humane:

Last week, there was a confirmed case of rabies in Blaine County. This incident is a good reminder of how important it is to keep your animals current on their rabies vaccine and other vaccinations. They help keep our community and our pets safe from the spread of disease.

Please help us spread the word: Mountain Humane will provide a free dog license ($10 value) with proof of a current rabies vaccine or purchase a $15 rabies vaccine. Call (208) 788-4351 ext. 301 to schedule an appointment.

Bats play an important role in the ecosystem and most are healthy. If you see a bat, please give it plenty of space. Avoid direct contact with bats and never handle a bat with your bare hands. If a bat appears to be acting injured or sick, please give it plenty of space and contact Idaho Fish and Game for assistance at (208) 756-2271.
