Veterans warned to get checked for rabies
Our dogs and cats here get shots but when soldiers come in contact with puppies they fall in love with overseas, they have no way of knowing if the animal is carrying rabies or not. It is even worse when they come into contact with older dogs, afraid and ready to attack. If you know a veteran that served in Iraq or Afghanistan, warn them they need to be checked if they were bitten by an animal there. I could save their lives.
