In brief: Berkeley Humane expects big turnout at free weekend shot clinic
"The Berkeley East Bay-Humane Society (Berkeley Humane) will host what is expected to be the largest free pet vaccine and microchip clinic ever held in the East Bay this weekend. With so many families struggling to access basic veterinary care and many still unaware that this help is available, the community's support in getting the word out is urgently needed."
"Families are desperate for affordable pet care right now, and we want every pet who needs help to get it, said Jeffrey Zerwekh, Berkeley Humane's executive director. This is an incredibly positive, community-driven event, and we're asking everyone to share it widely so no family misses out. This historic effort is made possible by La Russa Rescue Champions, the Dave & Cheryl Duffield Foundation, Maddie's Fund and the Bissell Pet Foundation."
Berkeley Humane will host a large free pet vaccine and microchip clinic offering a full weekend of free vaccines and microchips for Bay Area pets. No appointment is required and hundreds of local animals are expected to attend. The clinic seeks to reach families struggling to access basic veterinary care and aims to help every pet in need. The effort is supported by La Russa Rescue Champions, the Dave & Cheryl Duffield Foundation, Maddie's Fund and the Bissell Pet Foundation and will deliver services to more than 600 pets across five counties. The clinic runs 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday and Sunday at 936 Carleton St., Berkeley. The North Shattuck Joy Village Bazaar will offer a free family holiday celebration Dec. 13 from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., featuring crafts, cookie decorating, latkes, caroling, live music, hot cider and a raffle.
