About Interfaith Community Services
As North County’s largest social services agency, Interfaith Community Services (Interfait
National nonprofit Petco Love and Bissell Pet Foundation have teamed up for a National Pet Vaccination Month campaign called “Give Pets Their Best Shot.” It’s to encourage pet parents to keep their pets up to date on vaccinations to protect them from contagious and deadly diseases such as parvovirus, distemper and panleukopenia.
Petco Love is committing to help end life-threatening diseases in pets by providing 1 million free pet vaccines nationwide.
Rancho Coastal Humane Society (RCHS) submitted a grant to receive 300 vaccinations, which include
DAPPv for dogs and HCP for cats. A limited supply of rabies vaccinations will be available, along with Microchips.
The Give Pets Their Best Shot initiative makes crucial pet vaccines accessible to pet parents who may be experiencing financial challenges and assures that cost is not a barrier to protecting pets from preventable diseases.
Rancho Coastal Humane Society in partnership with FACE Foundation, North County Lifeline and Live Well San Diego are working together to put on the free community event, which is open to pet families throughout the county.
Thank you, North County Lifeline, for hosting this event at your Vista headquarters!
