UPDATE SEP 7TH: AS OF 12:12PM, WE ARE AT CAPACITY. WE ARE NO LONGER ABLE TO ADD PERSONS/PETS TO THE WAITLIST. We're sorry to anyone who had planned to make it out today and we hope to post our 2025 clinic dates before the end of the year.

UPDATE SEP 7TH: AS OF 11:20AM, OUR CLINIC WAIT TIME IS ESTIMATED AT 4 HOURS. WHILE WE WILL STILL WELCOME PETS ONTO THE WAITLIST, PLEASE NOTE THE ESTIMATED WAIT TIME AND USE YOUR BEST JUDGEMENT FOR YOU AND YOUR PET(S). UNFORTUNATELY, WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO VACCINATE ALL PETS TODAY, EVEN IF YOU ARE ON THE WAITLIST, AND WE MAY NEED TO END THE CLINIC EARLY. THANK YOU FOR YOUR UNDERSTANDING.

This free vaccine clinic is for dog and cat owners in Washtenaw County who:

• Are seniors or
• Are facing housing insecurity or
• Qualify for low-income services or
• Are experiencing extreme financial difficulty 

Vaccines will be first-come, first-served. Pre-registration not required, but highly recommended. Pre-registration is NOT an appointment time nor guarantees a vaccine. All attendees, including those who pre-register, must sign-up on our virtual waitlist when they arrive. We recommend arriving early. Cut-off time for the waitlist is 3:30pm or sooner as determined by capacity.  

How it works:

• You’ll check-in upon arrival and sign-up for our virtual waitlist queue.
• Our team will instruct you to stay in your car (or in the designated waiting area if on foot) until it is your turn. 
• When it is your turn, you will be notified by text message or email, depending on the information you provided at check-in.
• Vaccines will be administered outside under the covered awnings or inside the church in a secure room (per the discretion of our veterinary staff). To allow us to help as many dogs and cats as we can, safely and as stress-free as possible, please do not approach the entrance of the building until it is your turn and follow all instructions provided by staff and volunteers. 

*Vaccination Clinics can be difficult for animals who are nervous, anxious, or aggressive in new or high activity environments, or who don’t like to be around other pets or people. If your dog or cat is not able to be handled safely, or your dog or cat is not treatable or is sick, pregnant, or has other health issues, services (including vaccinations and nail trims) are not be able to be provided.

IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT THIS VACCINE CLINIC:

Please be advised that if your dog or cat is not able to be handled safely, or your pet is not treatable or is sick, pregnant, or has other health issues, services (including vaccinations and nail trims) are not be able to be provided. Additionally, you may be asked to schedule an Outpatient appointment during our regular business hours so that we can better service your pet. If your pet has previously had an adverse effect in response to vaccination, please call our clinic for an appointment.

This clinic, by law, does not meet the criteria for a “veterinary exam”, and does not count as one. If your pet needs a full exam, but there are financial issues that make this challenging, please talk to a team member about ways we can help make things work for you and your pet.
