🌍🐾 Today marks World Rabies Day, and it's a great reminder for all of us to brush up on this important topic, especially when it comes to our beloved furry companions. Let’s take a moment to learn about the signs of rabies in pets with the infographic below. Remember, don't let pets outside unattended for long periods of time, as they might encounter a rabid animal. If you happen to get bitten by an animal you suspect might not be vaccinated for rabies, don’t hesitate to see your doctor right away and ask about the rabies vaccine. Let’s keep ourselves and our pets safe and informed! 😊✨
